Sask. hockey to put borders on where girls can play
A new Saskatchewan Hockey Association (SHA) rule will limit where young girls can play hockey.
Beginning in the 2018-19 season, girls who live outside of cities will not be able to play on city teams.
SHA general manager Kelly McClintock told Gormley Monday these sorts of rules have already been in place for boys for more than 25 years.
“What it did is really stimulate minor hockey associations around (Regina and Saskatoon) to organize themselves and offer programming for boys as opposed to just relying on the two larger centres to offer the programming,” McClintock said.
