Launched in the fall of 2021 the WOSHL has been offering a unique new level of hockey that will enable players over 20 years of age the opportunity to continue their competitive hockey playing and continue to develop. Founded by Jamie Petrie and Bill Ryan. We started with the "first five" teams during the COVID pandemic as a way to give local players of high skill levels the opportunity to continue playing when done junior, college, minor pro and pro hockey. Future affiliation with the EOSHL (on hold due to COVID season restrictions until 2023/24) we are developing a province wide competitive league with exceptional talent and skill. This will result eventually with the champions of the EOSHL and WOSHL meeting for a provincial title. We look forward to continuing on our building this great league with the fans, players and sponsors. In 2024 with the expansion to include the central division we dropped the W from the league name and are now known as the OSHL.
