Ice Allocation Principles
OCMHA over the years has developed the following general principles in the
allocation of ice time:
Ice time purchased by the Association is shared equally among teams.
However, teams may purchase and pay for additional ice time from the City
whenever it becomes available and it is advertised on the City web site.
Additional ice time is available on outdoor rinks.
Each team recieves a minimum of 1 hour per week at Brewer. The extra
hours are allocated equally.
Total schedule transparency – hard copy to coaches, to canteen and to
Brewer bulletin board.
3. Subject to registration and team numbers, the available OCMHA ice is
allocated as follows:

3. The above designated ice times are used to develop the Interlock
Schedule for Home and Away (Visitor) games with other Minor Hockey teams in
the District and Juvenile teams with other Districts involved in Juveniles.
4. The Interlock Schedule and the Practice Schedule is developed in
cooperation between the Director of Interlock Relations, the Director of
Scheduling and the Division Coordinators.
5. A master schedule for ice allocation at Brewer Arena should be
available from the Director of Scheduling early November. If any team is not
able to use the assigned ice time, it is important to notify the Director of
Scheduling as soon as possible so that the ice can be made available to
other teams.
6. Each team coach may use the practice time as he/she feels best either
by practising as a team, practising with another OCMHA team or by arranging
exhibition games.
7. All the available ice times may not be preferred by all participants
but by sharing throughout the season, everyone is allocated an equal share.
There is no other ice time available in the City of Ottawa.
