Across Ontario the OSA is introducing the " Long Term Player Development" Plan. As stated by the OSA the goal "is to make the game more fun than ever before for the recreational player and to provide better development opportunities than ever before for those with aspirations for a future in the sport. LTPD is a key aspect of ensuring that will happen." For further information on the LTPD, please click on the logo.
