Henry's Journey - A Holland Bloorview Ride
Last June, Henry Black, a longstanding player on our 2008 Gold Select team, suffered a life-altering bike accident that left him a quadriplegic. Over the past year, Henry has been receiving care at both the Hospital for Sick Children and Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital.
Current treatment plans aim to get Henry home sometime later this summer or fall. Understandably, his home will need to undergo significant modifications so it is safe and comfortable for his return.
Henry's Journey is a fundraiser designed to help the family offset renovation costs and support Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital. Please help if you can!

Call for Volunteers - House League Trainers
The Leaside Hockey Association (LHA) is looking for volunteers to serve as House League (HL) Trainers for the upcoming 2025-26 season.

What's different about HL Trainers?
- Multiple children playing HL? You can volunteer across all their teams.
- The GTHL requires one Trainer per HL game - so HL Trainers don't have attend all games.
- Flexible scheduling - work with the HL Convenor to volunteer for games that fit your schedule.
- Over 16 and looking for volunteer hours? Get trained for free and volunteer for games throughout the season!
📌 PLEASE NOTE
LHA reimbursement for the GTHL Trainer Course or Recertification Course must be approved before the course is taken and will only be provided to individuals volunteering to help as a House League Trainers.

NHL/NHLPA First Shift Returns to Leaside
Thank you to everyone who participated in this season's First Shift Program at Leaside Arena. First Shift is a program designed by the NHL and the NHL Players Association to ensure a positive experience for new-to-hockey families. Every effort is made to create a lasting love for hockey by:
- taking away any intimidation as it relates to equipment requirements, and/or rules of the game,
- removing potential safety concerns, and most importantly,
- providing an experience that is memorable and FUN.
Accessible, Affordable, Safe and FUN are the goals of the First Start Program.
It was another great season and we were particularly pleased to have so many volunteers from our U15 - U18 Select & GTHL teams help give new players such a positive experience. See you next season!
LHA Goalie Training
Our goalie training is now complete for the 2024-25 season! Thank you to everyone who participated.
Check back in September for info on the 2025/26 Season!
This is a popular program that is available FREE to anyone in the LHA. Run by the professionals at Direct Motion Goaltending, these sessions are perfect for goalies of all skill levels from a HL player playing net for the first time to an experienced GTHL goaltender looking to improve.
During the season, goalies register in advance and attend in full goalie gear which can be accessed from the LHA if necessary. Goalies are grouped by age and ability and rotate through skill stations with a ratio of one coach for every three (3) goalies.
