Attention Hockey Players

Please read the following information carefully:

To make hockey registration easier, the Edmonton Minor Hockey Association has new guidelines for purchasing community league memberships. When you register for hockey you must pay a $25 fee for a “generic” community league membership. Therefore DO NOT PURCHASE a community league membership
directly from us. After you register for hockey (and pay the $25 fee) the EMHA will then send us your contact information and we will mail you your membership card and skate tags. Again, DO NOT purchase a membership card directly from us if you are registering for hockey in 2010-2011. Thank you!
