AJHL announces schedule for final games of the season; no games for Pontiacs

The Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL) today announced the schedule for the final weeks of the AJHL Return to Play Plan, which will conclude on May 9th, 2021.

There are currently no upcoming games for the Bonnyville Jr. A Pontiacs; however the Spruce Grove Saints are yet to announce their competitor so there could be a chance for the Pontiacs to lace up again.

The Alberta Junior Hockey League will end the 2020-21 season following a 60-game exhibition schedule and over 100 regular season games.

The new cohorts for the final weeks of the 2020-21 AJHL Season are listed below.  The complete game schedule is available at AJHL.ca.

•     Cohort #1 – Calgary Canucks, Drayton Valley Thunder
•     Cohort #2 – Brooks Bandits, Olds Grizzlys
•     Cohort #3 – Sherwood Park Crusaders, Grande Prairie Storm
•     Cohort #4 – Spruce Grove Saints

The Spruce Grove Saints are currently without a partner for game play this weekend; a schedule for their final week of play will be determined shortly.

AJHL teams have committed to utilizing private PCR testing through DynaLIFE on a weekly basis throughout the season.  If a member of the AJHL cohort – players or staff – test positive for COVID-19 at any point in the season, the team is required to isolate and suspend all in-person team activities for 14 days.  Enhanced daily screening for all AJHL players and team staff is monitored through the SureHire Risk Assessment App.

Spectators are not currently permitted at AJHL games due to provincial restrictions, however, all games will be broadcast on HockeyTV.
