I have no idea what the GTHL may be planning, but I can all but guarantee that OMHA will not be eliminating residential boundaries this coming season. They are currently doing everything they can to level the playing field and have as equal competition as they can and removing boundaries would go against everything they have been working on for the past number of years. Just my opinion.

Man you have no idea how it works do you. You should not be posting anything on here, talk about misinformation.

I have a very good idea as to how it works as I have been involved on the executive side of minor hockey for many years. I have made an attempt to dumb down my original post so maybe you will understand it better. And if you still believe I am wrong in what I say, please tell everyone how it actually works.
The OHF can make recommendations which can then become a motion put forth by the individual leagues (OMHA, GTHL, Alliance, etc). Those motions are voted on by the membership of those leagues (minor hockey associations) during the league AGM's in the summer, and if passed they then come into effect for the following season. So for boarders to be open for the 2025-2026 season, this would have had to be voted on and passed last summer which it was not. The only way would be to hold all tryouts in the fall after the AGM and I don't believe anyone wants to do that. OHF does not have the dictatorship powers to make this happen. I am not saying I am opposed or in favor of open boards, just explaining the process.

This!! I have been saying for a while now that if they were to be open next season, the wheels would already have to be in motion. What I do wonder is what the OHF will announce following the September social media post that they claimed would be a 4 month review. Maybe something like what you said above "OHF wil recommend that OMHA, Alliance, GTHL review their border polices etc". 2026/27 season could be when we see real change

Hockey Canada approved open boarders at their AGM. The structural change had to be approved for them to move to the next step and now they are. It will be rolled out, this season. All ages, All levels - Open.

I just read through the Hockey Canada 2024-2025 bylaws, and it states on page 70 that a player must register where the said players parent resides. Maybe they just forgot to update a small detail like that...

I feel very sorry if you are on an executive because you are clueless how this works. It the OHF votes open borders its open period. Your association zero say. You comment about dumbing it down for me wont age well, in fact I already think it has not. No need to apologize this happens all the time on here.
