The Outaouais Senior A Hockey League (Ligue de hockey sénior 'A' de l'Outaouais in French) is a men's senior hockey league founded in the spring of 2018. The league was founded to give players who are too old to play junior or their college/university or professional career is over and they are not quite ready to hang up the skates.
The league's vision is to become a sustainable option for senior hockey in the region within three years. The league aims to have 8 to 12 franchises at the Senior AAA level federated with Hockey Canada, which will compete for the Allan Cup representing Quebec. Within the five years the plan is have a league member host the Allan Cup tournament. [1]
The league website lists four teams logos for the league's inaugural season of 2018-19, with plans to start the season with six teams. Plans are to play a 16 game schedule plus playoffs. The teams include the Hull Sr Volant (flagship franchise), Fort-Coulonge Sr Comets (announced April 29th), Shawville Sr Pontiacs (announced May 1st), and the Cornwall Prowlers (announced May 8th)(to be based out of the Benson Centre) .[2]
