Permission to Skate Forms

(OMHA PTS for AAA and Junior Teams)

BE SURE TO REGISTER with Brant Hockey as well to apply for a NRP.(AA).

Please note that Permission to Skate Form requests are not permitted until OMHA have released the forms. The date changes every year. Brant Hockey will notify parents when PTS forms are activated by OMHA and when form requests can start. 

The Ontario Minor Hockey Association (OMHA) requires that every player trying out for a AAA team obtain a Permission to Skate (PTS) form from their home centre prior to stepping on the ice. Please note that a permission to skate form is not a player release nor is it an OHF AAA Waiver form.

Brant Minor Hockey can only provide a PTS form for the Brantford 99ers AAA.  We cannot provide a PTS form for any other AAA Zone. If a player is cut from Brantford, they can request an OHF AAA Waiver form from Brantford 99ers AAA to allow them to tryout with an adjoining AAA zone. 

For Junior PTS, if a player played on a AAA team this past season, request Junior PTS from the AAA association. If a player played for their home centre (Brant), then a Junior PTS form must be filled out by their home centre (Brant). 

You must complete the online form request provided by Brant Minor Hockey in order to receive your paperwork found on the Brant Minor Hockey website. THIS WILL NOT BECOME LIVE UNTIL OMHA RELEASE THE NEXT SEASON FORMS!!!!!
