Looks like COW is dissolving next year. Where do you think these kids will end up?

The next closest AAA centre to their address. I'm sure OMHA will look at the borders and evaluate which centre they belong to.

So if COW is out, maybe Richmond Hill is back in?

Lots of kids who play for COW are actually closer to other centres, especially in the south. Silly borders.

No chance RH comes back. If anything one more team will dissolve and will have 10 teams each in East & West

No they are getting OMHA down to 10 competitive teams. COW out, Oshawa and Clarington are merging

And lots of kids who play for COW are an hour from any other team which means there will be a drop in COW centre players going elsewhere.

Add to that the hometown hockey approaches of a number of centres and it means some good players will be shut out of hockey they are well suited to play.

Huge step backwards.

Better step would have been to merge COW with Ptbo or .................. another centre so those players still have a home centre.

More to come

Potential merger of NCP AND Barrie. Strong rumour of Waxers being dissolved and South Central Zone coming back.

OMHA trying to compete with the G and make league better. Less teams means better hockey.

There’s a lot of AA players playing AAA at the bottom of the OMHA. AAA is supposed to be elite of the elite and this will help get there
