New Direction Hockey is back and ramping up for summer 2023. Once again, the Magna Center will be our host. NDH puck drop is the second week of May, 2023 and play weekly until the banquet at the end of August, 2023. WE ARE LAUNCHING A 35+ DIVISION and I have a feeling that this will be sold out first!! The Team rep and new player meet and greet is set for *Monday, April 3^rd. at WICKED EATS, 7:00pm so put it on your calendar.

Registrations are on the left. Fill them out and get them to me. I will be dating them as they are received in my inbox. Teams will qualify on a first come, first served basis (returning teams will have priority on any new registrations).

Summer hockey 2022 came to an end last August..Some very exciting finishes in all divisions and our season ender banquet was outstanding. Thank you to all the Magna Center staff for making May till August a fantastic experience. Thank you to the Lion in Newmarket for hosting our banquet and awards ceremony. 

NDH is So thankful to the Town of Newmarket, my fantastic Convening staff, Chief Referee and Referees at NDH and of course YOU! 

2023 will be our 14th summer at the Magna Center and still growing each year. We are blessed with such support.

Thank you all for your ongoing support, and confidence in New Direction Hockey.

Stay safe on and off the ice..

In these unprecedented times, we will continue our summer hockey programs in 2023, again playing at The Magna Center in Newmarket. MAGNA is one of the finest facilities for Ice Hockey anywhere and we are proud to be part of the team there in the summer months. Along with a top notch facility to play out of, New Direction Hockey is dedicated first and foremost to the safety of its players. This means strictly enforced non-contact hockey with a zero tolerance policy. We provide a competitive league in a safe and friendly environment for people who have to go to work in the morning. Please carefully read and familiarize yourself and your team with our rules.

Men's Adult Hockey programs are organized from a select few Ice Hockey facilities in and around the G.T.A. The emphasis is usually based on the numbers' game, with very little importance geared toward quality. Most Hockey teams are now recognizing this and are searching out for the best available place to play. Loyalty and dedication from a full team of quality people lays a strong foundation to a successful Men's League. It is my goal to enhance that reputation and maximize our standing with as many hockey players possible.

The New Direction Hockey philosophy has a very positive reputation in the recreational hockey industry and has been in operation for several decades. Along with a team of quality people that, together, we have over 80 years of experience in the "sphere" of recreational hockey.

In the G.T.A. the industry is a lot smaller than you may imagine. Recreational Hockey in the GTA is a very tight group. Team reps do their homework in this day and age. They want service, service, service and GOOD VALUE. They want the right people to provide this, and they know who is good and who is not. Teams and reps need a "heads up" as to the quality of people running their night out with the boys.

Hockey programs build successfully with the needs of the players being first and foremost. I remain confident that our high level of success will continue for us in this industry. I will continue to direct my energy toward a common goal of an unconditional commitment to you, to continuing to represent the best organized Men's Recreational Hockey Program in the G.T.A. I am forever grateful for your undying support.

With Sincerity,

Connor McDavid continues to amaze. His on and off ice professionalism shows that he is not only the best player in the NHL but he is truly a gentleman with class all the way. Connor has played summers with NDH for several years and was back again in 2022. That was Connor's seventh summer season with New Direction Hockey, We didnt see Connor in 2019, as he was rehabilitating from his horrendous injury at the end of the 2018 season. His great play and positive attitude, along with his tremendous support of New Direction Hockey has inspired so many other great names from Pro hockey that have chosen to come and play some puck with us week after week in Newmarket. Great players such as Dallas superstar, Jason Robertson, , Leafs' Travis Dermott and Jordan Subban, World juniors 4 goal scorer and first rounder to the Flyers, Morgan Frost, the Av's Captain, Gabriel Landeskog, Ryan Murphy, Darren Archbald, Phil Giuseppe, Malcolm Subban, and James Livingston have chosen NDH to play summer hockey with us. We are also very proud to announce that our very own DYLAN SIKURA WAS ONE OF THE TOP PROSPECTS TO CANADA'S 2018 OLYMPIC TEAM and played for the Blackhawks in the 2019 Outdoor Classic hockey game at Notre Dame Stadium. It was sad to see   Josh Leivo   traded from the Leafs. He was a big supporter of NDH. We have 2 NHL CAPTAINS, several World Cup and Olympic athletes that have played in the league. We would also like to congratulate NDH all-star and World Cup u18 GOLD medalist QUINTON BYFIELD, who also plays with us .... what an honour!!  Its great fun watching the caliber of hockey that is played in our TIM HORTONS - PREMIER ELITE division on Wednesday nights. Come check it out.... 

We, at NDH, certainly wish great success to all the players that are reaching for the stars in so many hockey cities in North America, and hopefully we will, once again, see all thes tremendous athletes year after year with New Direction Hockey at the Magna Center. Good Luck !!

Don't forget to remind all your players that if they lose their mind on or off the ice, they will lose the priviledge to play hockey in this league. Teams learn very quickly that we mean business.

If you have any members of your team that you think may be an issue early or later in the schedule, tell them to stay home NOW.   They will embarrass you down the road, trust me !!
