Minor Hockey Overage Player Application Form

Players (other than 18-year-olds) are eligible to be registered as Overage Players if they are one birth year older than the maximum age for the Division and have a date of birth between November 1 and December 31 of that year. If a player meets this criteria, the Overage Player Application is not required. Contact your Minor Hockey Association to inquire about registration.
