This is a great win for all hockey fans big and small in St. Thomas and surrounding communities.

STMHA is already scheduled to host the Boston Pizza Cup Minor / AE Tournament that weekend.  All of a sudden the entertainment factor took a huge jump for the 30 or more teams from outside the city that have added our tournament to their 2017-2108 schedule!

The board of STMHA is being included in the planning discussions.

Volunteers from within St Thomas Minor Hockey Association may be required.

More information will be posted as it is shared with our association from Rogers Sportsnet and the City of St. Thomas.  

To get a feel for what is coming......Rogers Sportsnet has put together 4 - 30 min "The Best of Rogers Hometown Hockey" episodes.  First episode airs tomorrow night (Thurs Sep 7) @ 9:30 pm ET


Sponsors
Tim Hortons

atoMc - McDonalds Canada
In keeping with a 40-year heritage, McDonald’s Canada is proud to support minor hockey in communities across the country, by offering young players a unique opportunity to build their sense of teamwork and focus on the joy of playing.
True Sport
The True Sport Principles are a rallying point for True Sport members — they are universal. The principles can be brought to life in any sport at any level, from playground to podium. An Olympic rowing squad can embrace these principles with the same sense of pride and purpose as an elementary school, an old-timers' league, or a community hockey arena. For sport to be truly good and have the opportunity to make the greatest difference, all seven of these principles need to be in play at all times, working in perfect balance with one another.
M & M Food Market
Food’s our thing. But like most things, every once in a while they need to be revamped. Given a fresh new look. A fresh new taste. So that’s exactly what we did. We’ve changed to bring you more. More real tastes, real adventures, real experiences. So real, that our food is now completely free of artificial flavours, colours or sweeteners. Because you expect more from your food. So that’s what we’re giving you. More than meat. We’re giving you a place to create inspired dishes. And to find everything you need to make dinner worth sitting down for again. Just as your needs have changed, we’ve changed for you.
Optimist International "Talbotville"
Optimist International is a worldwide volunteer organization made up of more than 2,500 local Clubs whose Members work each day to make the future brighter by bringing out the best in children, in their communities, and in themselves.
