OHF Return to Play (RTP) Framework
The OHF RTP Framework document provides the foundation for hockey programming across the OHF. This document details multiple stages within Stage 3. Transition through these stages will be based on the direction of the Government of Ontario and in consultation with Public Health Units (PHU). The OHF has developed multiple levels within Stage 3 as the Ontario Government Stage 3 will continue to modify over time.

The number of 50 refers to players only. Bench Staff are not included in this cohort/bubble.
Rostering
Teams will be rostered to a maximum of 9 players + 1 goalie. Five (5) Team Officials can be rostered to each team, however, one Coach and one Trainer can be on the bench during 3v3 & 4v4 games in order to maintain physical distancing on bench.
