The Ottawa Senators 4-on-4 League is back and better than ever!
This league showcases fun and free-flowing hockey, without stoppages, face-offs, or coaches. Participants can expect a minimum of 22 fast-paced games including playoffs, music during all games, player-of-the-game awards, and a Senators youth league jersey.
The goal of the league is to encourage creativity and give each player time to develop new skills, in an atmosphere that prioritizes fun. Each year countless parents comment that this was THE most fun hockey of the season for their child.
In order to align closely with the City of Ottawa’s efforts to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus in our community, all three of our Sensplex facilities have been closed to the public until Friday, May 1st. As a result, the start of the youth league season has been postponed until at least that time. Our tentative plan is to begin our season within two weeks of notification that our facilities will re-open, with an estimated schedule for each division to be posted as soon as possible.

If you are unsure about the appropriate division for your hockey player please call (613-599-0222) or email ([email protected]) prior to completing your registration. Participants enrolled in the incorrect division may be moved without prior notice. Also, please note that the divisions referenced above will be separated into exclusive divisions by ability where enrollment warrants. Combined divisions (Rec / Advanced) will be run where enrollment does not warrant a split. In each case, teams will be balanced to ensure the best possible experience for all.
WE LOVE GOALIES PROGRAM

GAME FORMAT
DRESSING ROOM POLICY
HOCKEY EASTERN ONTARIO (HEO) INSURANCE/SANCTIONING
All Ottawa Senators Youth Leagues are sanctioned under Hockey Canada through HEO (Hockey Eastern Ontario). All participants who played in a registered minor hockey association during the 2019/20 season are fully covered under this sanctioning. Any participant who did not play in a registered minor hockey association is required to purchase the HEO Sanctioning fee at the time of registration.
Girls who are currently registered players within the OWHA are already insured by Hockey Canada and therefore are not required to pay the additional HEO sanctioning fee. Only in the case where the participant has not been registered with either of the OWHA or the HEO would you be required to pay the fee.
FRIEND REQUESTS
In order to ensure balanced teams, please be advised that only ONE (1) friend request will be accepted per participant. All one-to-one friend requests will be honoured by league administrators, as long as they are received prior to March 1, 2020. Requests may be completed during your registration. Any participants who request more than one friend will automatically void their submission. This policy will help the 4-on-4 league strive for fair and well-balanced teams; while allowing participants to meet new teammates!
Please note that circular friend requests will not be honoured. A one-to-one friend request is valid when Player A requests to play with Player B and Player B requests to play with Player A. A circular request (that will not be honoured) is when Player A requests to play with Player B, Player B requests to play with Player C, and Player C requests to play with Player A. All three of the requests in the circular example will be automatically voided.
LEAGUE BALANCING
League administrators will use information provided during registration (league, level, team played during the 2019-20 season) to create teams of equal skill level at the start of the season. During the first four weeks of the season, each team will be evaluated by league coordinators and staff. Balancing moves will be made in order to ensure all teams are as equal as possible.
These balancing moves will be made in such a way that friend requests are continuously honoured throughout the season. If you have any questions about the balancing process, please don’t hesitate to contact league staff.
