The South Muskoka Minor Hockey Association is wrapping up its winter playoff season in Bracebridge, Ontario, as of March 11, 2026. This conclusion marks the end of a busy competitive schedule for local players in the U11, U13, U15, and U18 age groups who have been playing games since late February.
The association was created when the former Bracebridge and Gravenhurst hockey groups joined together to serve both towns. Community members can follow updates for these local teams on their official Facebook and Instagram accounts.
While the main playoff schedule has ended for most players, some squads are still getting ready for their final events of the year. This includes the Swindells March Classic, a tournament that will take place in late March before the association shifts to off-season planning.
The teams follow the provincial rules set by the Ontario Minor Hockey Association (OMHA), which manages the playoff structure for the region. The end of these competitive games allows local families a clear finish to the winter hockey season before spring activities begin.
