Effective for the 2025-26 season, Hockey Canada participants will notice a change in the structure of their annual service fees that directly support benefits provided by the national governing body, including sport safety and hockey development initiatives.

Participants will pay $41.41 in service fees next season, including insurance, which is an increase of $11.68.*

The majority of the increase is related to the participant assessment fee, which has not been raised in over 20 years.

The participant fees will be structured as follows:

• Assessment fee will increase from $3.00/participant to $10.00/participant
• Sport Integrity fee will increase from $2.94/participant to $4.50/participant
• Hockey Canada Registry fee will be $3.12/participant
• Participant insurance fees will not increase for the 2025-26 season and remain $23.79/participant.

We thank you for your understanding of these changes to our service fees for next season that are necessary to ensure the development, sustainability and safety of Canada’s hockey system.

*In Quebec, participants will pay $39.00, which is an increase of $10.12, as they have a different fee structure based on provincial legislation.
