If we are mandated to close down due to COVID and as directed by the government of Canada and or Ontario and we are no longer able to continue with our programs, we will refund players a pro-rated amount based on the number of sessions that remained in their season.

All players have the option to play in any league they choose to play in and there is no penalty for doing so. There will be a transfer fee associated with each player who does choose to transfer from one league to another. GSBA is working to secure funding so that parents do not have to absorb that fee.  Please visit the OBA website to read about their transfer policy for players. All players are welcome to sign up for tryouts and attend GSBA's club without any penalty.
