The puck drops at the 2015 U16 OHL Gold Cup

The top forty Minor Midget aged players in the Ontario Minor Hockey Association [OMHA] will take to the ice for the 2015 Under 16 OHL Gold Cup taking place May 7 – 10, 2014 at the Kitchener Activa Sports Complex. The four day tournament will feature 8 teams representing the ALLIANCE, GTHL, HNO, NOHA, ODHA and OMHA stacked with the top 160 Under-16 players in Ontario.

The two OMHA teams were comprised after extensive regular season evaluation that culminated in an mini-camp held in Oakville May 2nd. The team features 40 OHL Priority Draft selections from 16 Minor Midget AAA teams.

The tournament format will consist of a three game preliminary round robin on May 7th and 8th. The top two teams from each pool will then cross over in semi-final action May 9th followed by medal rounds on May 10th.

“The OMHA has a long and proud tradition of developing some of the top hockey talent in the world.” said OMHA U16 Director of Operations, Chris McCleary, “This event will be a key step in identifying and developing the next crop of elite players in Ontario.”

“The OMHA is proud to participate in the Under 16 OHL Gold Cup. This program has become the entry point for players into the Hockey Canada Program of Excellence.” said Ian Taylor, Director, Development Programs for the OMHA. “This program represents a development opportunity to give players the tools to succeed in the high performance stream of Long-Term Player Development [LTPD] and also begins to identify players to participate in international competitions.”
