COLGHA Award Nominations

Hello COLGHA Families,

What an incredible season it has been for our Collingwood Lightning community.

From early mornings at the rink to big wins, hard-fought games, and meaningful moments of growth, this season has been a true reflection of what makes COLGHA so special—commitment, teamwork, and a shared love of the game.

As we head into the final stretch, we want to wish the very best of luck to all of our teams heading to Provincials. We are proud of everything you’ve accomplished and will be cheering you on every step of the way.

As we begin to wrap up the season, we are excited to open nominations for the COLGHA 2025/2026 Awards—an opportunity to recognize the players, coaches, and volunteers who made a lasting impact this year.

These awards will be presented at our Celebration of the 2025/2026 Season Banquet.
