U18 B/BB

COLGHA will host Two U18 Competitive Teams and One U18 Local League Team for the 2024/25 Season based on our projected registration numbers and 2023/24 season standings for all U15 and U18 teams. U18 is a three year division and it is very important to COLGHA that we continue to provide ALL girls the opportunity to play hockey in their own community, at the level in which they will develop and thrive.

We encourage all eligible U18 players to try out!!
