• RMHA currently has 106 registered players in our association.

(Initiation 30, Novice 11, Atom 17, Peewee 12, Bantam 17, Midget 19)

• RMHA believes that the CAHL would be a better fit for our association rather than our current SPUD League

• RMHA admires the tier system established in the CAHL, we would be provided a wider range of teams to play at different levels, finding the right fit for each one of our divisions.

• RMHA feels we would be able to play teams closer to the same levels as our teams, increasing the level of competitiveness and fun for all players

• Being placed in the correct tier would build the self esteem of all our players, and that is our #1 goal!

RMHA would like to bring all levels over to the CAHL
