About Our League

Ottawa West Golden Knights are a competitive B association within District B (Bytown Minor Hockey Association), playing within Hockey Eastern Ontario (HEO). The Golden Knights provide a competitive program for players aged U10 through U18 within our catchment area.

Mission

Our mission is to develop competitive talent within the Golden Knights geographical boundary while exercising general care, supervision and direction over the playing interests of its teams and players while fostering a sense of fair play and sportsmanship. We strive to promote and improve competitive hockey in Ottawa West while maintaining and increasing the interest in the game of hockey.

Imports

We generally do not accept players from outside District B unless a team is unable to field a full, competitive roster of "at-level" players from within our home association.

Fair Ice Policy

Ottawa West follows the Hockey Canada Fair Ice Policy. In competitive hockey, "fair" does not always mean "equal." Coaches are granted latitude in bench management during critical game situations and for disciplinary issues, consistent with team rules.
