A draft version of the High Performance League Handbook is now available to the membership. The High Performance League set to begin in September of 2020. The content of this draft outlines the features and of the HPL and how the OVA plans on operationalizing it.

This draft was designed taking into account the important amount of feedback received from the OVA membership about the project. The OVA staff would like to thank all the people who provided feedback through:

• OVA Annual General Meeting in December 2018
• 50 hours of meetings with 15 clubs from across Ontario in January and February 2019
• Information session at 18U Ontario Championship
• 2 information webinars on May 6th & 7th, 2019
• Online meeting with the members of the President Advisory Council on May 30th, 2019
• Meeting with 35 coaches from OVA high performance programs at HPC in North Bay on July 12th, 2019
• Several conversations and emails from athletes, parents, coaches and club presidents

Thank you for your collaboration with this exciting project that will shape the development of high performance athletes in Ontario for years to come.
