Community Update Fairness for Girls' Hockey
On December 4, 2009, Toronto City Council voted 36-2 in favour of a motion that would ensure both girls and boys get their fair and equitable share of ice time
at city-owned arenas.
This decision comes, in large part, thanks to the overwhelming support the TLGHA has received from our community – and hockey players everywhere.
Our female hockey players and parents showed their colours (Wildcats red!) at Toronto City Council on December 1st – showing city politicians that girls' hockey is a vibrant, growing sport that deserves support and encouragement.
Now, as a result of this decision, all eight management-run arena boards will be required to show that they are giving recreational girls' and boys' ice programs a proportionate share of ice time. The City of Toronto will now approve all ice allocation. Visit here for more information.
Many thanks again, for your ongoing support!
