Bodychecking prohibited in OHL this season
The Ontario Hockey League will not have bodychecking during its upcoming campaign.
The province’s minister of sport, Lisa MacLeod, confirmed the decision Friday afternoon, according to The Canadian Press.
MacLeod believes removing purposeful contact is a necessary step in preventing the spread of COVID-19. The QMJHL, which has already had several outbreaks, influenced her decision.
“It would be safe to say that body contact unless it’s incremental, will not be permitted as a result of COVID-19,” MacLeod said earlier this month. “That would pose a challenge in terms of how they amend their play.”
So, “SHE” wants to force the OHL to become the w-OHL.
And I tried to watch some of the woman’s non-contact hockey…
That makes someone watching the NFL and they are not allowed to tackle. It would be flag (fag) football.
NO thanks.
Not interested.
