Ottawa Rec Hockey (ORH) is a community-based hockey club in Ottawa that provides a fun and competitive environment for players of all skill levels to enjoy the game of hockey. The club offers a Winter Season from September 2023 to March, with games scheduled on current ice available.
Regular players at ORH receive the best prices, insurance coverage, and the ability to hold their spots season to season. Players can request open spots in games from Game Managers (GM's) and confirm their spots by making payment through Interac e-transfer. A waiver/consent form must also be completed and forwarded to the GM before the first game.
Goalies at ORH do not pay to play but are required to commit to being at games. They can contact the GM with their availability and may need to be on the spare goalies list for games. All players are encouraged to sign up for a members account to receive email updates and ensure easy communication with other players/organizers.
Players at ORH can withdraw from a game for a refund before a contract is in effect, subject to an admin fee. If a game cannot be filled, it may be cancelled with participants receiving refunds or applying fees to another game if space permits. In the event of the program being shut down for public health reasons, ORH may be obligated to fulfill contractual obligations with no refunds possible.
For those interested in joining ORH, signing up involves completing a mandatory form with name, preferred position, phone number, screen name, login email address, password, and skill level description. Once signed up, players can update their information at any time through their account.
Overall, Ottawa Rec Hockey provides a welcoming and inclusive community for hockey enthusiasts in Ottawa to come together, play the game they love, and form lasting connections with fellow players.
