The Ontario Minor Hockey Association is looking for families in Ajax, Ontario, to join a new focus group study this March 2026 to help improve local sports programs. This project allows parents and players to share their personal experiences to help guide the future of minor hockey across the province.
The Ajax Pickering Minor Hockey Association is working with the provincial group to ensure local voices are heard during these discussions. This study is an opportunity for families to talk about how the sport is run and what could be better for young players.
The provincial hockey group is the largest of its kind in the world and manages about 80,000 players across Ontario. Feedback from the study will help the organization understand the needs of players and their parents as they develop new plans for the sport.
By taking part, local residents have a direct chance to influence the rules and programs that affect community leagues. The initiative aims to make the hockey experience more focused on the needs of the families who participate in the system every day.
