Boasting 12 member teams, the NOJHL is quickly becoming one of the premier Jr. A leagues in all of the national Canadian Junior Hockey League. The season saw four of our clubs listed in the final CJHL Top 20 rankings of the campaign, including our defending back-to-back NOJHL champion Soo Thunderbirds who were ranked third in the 131-team CJHL. We as a league have also seen well over 100 players, coaches, officials and team staff members advance to the next level be it through NCAA or CIS programs as well via the Canadian Hockey League along with various other elite-level programs and conferences. The NOJHL Showcase will provide two days of exciting on-ice action through a total of 12 games under one roof, which will allow you to scout all of our players at one venue, the Gerry McCrory Countryside Sports Complex in Sudbury.
