================================================================================+
This year we will be registering all Rep teams before we open registration to LL teams. We expect registration to be open around May 13th. We will be opening registration to returning Crusaders first, then after a couple of days we will open it up to all players.
If you are new to hockey, an HCR number is required. If you do not have an HCR # please contact Durham Crusaders registrar, Liana Harrison: [email protected], for information on how to obtain an HCR #.
NEED HELP?
If you experience difficulty with registration, please contact our registrar, Amanda at [email protected]
GENERAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Payments
Registration fees can be made online through the Hockey Canada Registration system using credit card or via e-transfer to our league treasurer at [email protected]. Please note the player’s full name in your e-transfer. Registration will not be considered complete and a spot will not be reserved for the player until payment has been received.
Residency
Please note that false residency claims and claims that cannot be substantiated for representative players will result in forfeiture of full registration fees.
Placement Requests
Although we do our best to honor requests made for players to be on the same team, this is not something that we can guarantee as we are committed to putting together balanced teams to ensure that all players on our LL teams (and the Three County League that we play in) have the best possible experience.
The Durham Crusaders provide the opportunity for representative hockey as well as local league hockey.
LOCAL LEAGUE HOCKEY DETAILS:
The Local League (LL) program is intended to offer players the opportunity to play recreational, non-contact hockey at a level that is higher than house league hockey and includes more ice time than average house league programs. The Durham Crusaders LL program is open to Whitby residents as well as players from the surrounding communities. There are no tryouts and all players are welcome. Each player is assigned a team in the appropriate age division with home games and practices scheduled weekly as well as away games within the Three County League. We aim to have players on the ice in September and the season will end mid-late March.
REPRESENTATIVE (COMPETITIVE) DETAILS
Representative Tryouts
**See our tryout page for information regarding our 2025 tryout dates. They start Saturday, May 10th.
The OHF seasonal calendar for minor hockey was built on the following principles:
· No on-ice activity be permitted until the Tuesday following Labour Day
· Tournaments permitted to start no earlier than October 8th
· All Minor Hockey teams must be engaged in meaningful hockey until March 31st, 2025
