Registration for the 2025/2026 YKMHA Season is now OPEN!

We are excited to announce that registration for the 2025-2026 Yellowknife Minor Hockey season is now open!

This season YKMHA has is the removed the fee for late registration, but we have now implemented a registration cut-off date. 

Registration will remain open until August 1^st , 2025.

After this date, players will be placed on a waitlist with no guarantee of team placement. Removal from a waitlist will be subject to space availability and at the approval of the league. In addition, registration for Development Team Try-outs will not be accepted after August 1st, 2025 so please register early to secure your spot. This process will allow YKMHA to better plan for the 2025-2026 season.

This season, we’ve also aligned our registration process more closely with our updated Registration Policy to support the financial health of the Association and ensure all players are fully registered before participating in any on-ice activities. Under the new structure, payment plans will be processed throughout the summer with the final payment in September. Based on feedback from the membership, the initial payment of the payment plan has been lowered, and the remaining payments increased. Registrations with outstanding balances at the beginning of the on-ice season will not be permitted to participate until arrangements have been made with the league.
