Ontario Hockey Federation Championships and Regional Championships are taking place throughout April and there are 18 OMHA teams who will be competing or have already completed their event.
Four local member minor hockey associations, Hamilton, Erie North Shore, Burlington and Quinte West were selected as the hosts for the 2018 OHF Championships while the North Central Predators were chosen as the hosts for the All-Ontario Bantam AAA Championships.
The OHF Championships are a three day event that produces champions at the Atom (A, AA, AAA), Peewee (A, AA), Bantam (A, AA), Midget (A, AA), and Juvenile divisions. Other divisions and Hockey Canada Branches may participate as approved by the OHF Board of Directors. The All-Ontario Championships are the pinnacle events for Peewee and Bantam AAA hockey teams.
The OHF Championships will take place on the weekend of April 13-15, 2018 while the All-Ontario Bantam and Midget AAAs ended last week. Five teams participate at each of the OHF Championships (the OHF Minor Hockey Member Partner Championship teams within the age category plus the host team).
