Ottawa Sting Registration portal is now open.
With most of the teams now finalized and being on the verge of the start of the competitive season, the portal is now open for 2023-2023 OMSHA registration fees. Like other years, you will be responsible to pay two fees: (1) the OSMHA Registration/Association Fee and (2) your Team Fees.
Registration/Association Fee
The Registration Fee is paid to OSMHA. It is used to pay for ice, insurance, league and association fees, player and coach development, team photos, and other administrative benefits provided by OSMHA.
Over the last several seasons, OSMHA membership has expressed a strong desire for increased ice allocation from Sting. As a result, beyond the ice purchased by us from the City of Ottawa through District B, we have purchased additional ice at Ottawa U, TD Place, and Carleton University. Note that the cost of City ice has risen to about $228.50 per hour and private ice costs are about $400 per hour. In addition, the City now requires payment for ice up-front at the start of each month. As a result, of this and other increased costs, the Registration/Association fee for 2023-2024 will be
$1,830 per player (up from $1,775 per player last year).
Members will have the option to pay the registration in one lump sum-payment or in two instalments:
• Lump sum payments of $1,830 will be due on
October 20, 2023.
• If paying in instalments, the
first payment of $1,000 is due by October 20, 2023; and the
second payment of $830 is due by November 20, 2023.
To pay your fees, please visit the Sting homepage and click on
"2023-24 Season Registration Fees" on the left-hand side of the page. This will take you to the registration system where you will log in and pay the fees.
Please note that registration fees must be paid before the deadlines set out, unless you have made prior arrangements with the OSMHA Treasurer, or the player will be unable to participate in any Sting activities, including practices and games.
Team Fee
The Team Fee is paid directly to your team manager or treasurer. It is used to pay for extra expenses not paid for by OSMHA from the registration fee (tournaments, extra ice, team-building events, additional player development, etc.). Team fees will vary from team to team. Your team manager or team treasurer will advise you how much you should pay for your team fees, and will likely already have done so.
If you have any questions about any of the above, please ask your team manager. If they are unable to answer your questions, please feel free to contact a member of the Executive.
