TBMHA teams wanting to participate in a tournament or schedule an exhibition game must submit a Travel Request. Requests for either are submitted using the same form.
All Travel Requests for Exhibition Games should be submitted at least 7 business days in advance of your game to avoid late fees. For Exhibition Games against an HNO opponent, only 1 team needs to submit a Travel Request.
To accommodate Travel Requests during the TBMHA Regular Season game schedule, submissions need to be made before the following deadlines:
Travel Period | Division |
Deadline |
---|---|---|
October 2024 |
All | Friday September 6th, 2024 |
November & December 2024 | AAA* & AA | Friday September 20th, 2024 |
November & December 2024 | A | Friday September 27th, 2024 |
January & February 2025 | All | Friday October 4th, 2024 |
*applicable for teams that play TBMHA scheduled games.
*** Only submit Tournament Travel Requests if you are confident you are attending the tournament ***
After submitting your Travel Request, you will receive a confirmation email. Please keep this email as proof you submitted your Travel Request.
Travel Requests submitted after the deadline that conflict with a Regular Season Game require a Game Swap Form to be approved. This means teams will be expected to figure out how to schedule around their conflict and then submit the change to the TBM Office for approval. Submit your request on time to avoid this extra task!
Once a Travel Request is approved by TBMHA, we will use the information to apply for an HNO Travel Permit. HNO Travel Permit Fee is $16 + HST for tournament travel or exhibition games against non HNO teams. There is no fee for exhibition games against an HNO opponent. Travel Permits submitted on short notice are subject to a $50 late fee. Click here for more info on HNO Travel Permits.
Once a Travel Permit is approved by HNO, the approved permit will be sent to the email address submitted with your Travel Request. Approvals typically occur 7 to 10 days before your event.
Please contact the TBM Hockey Office if:
Please be sure to use the applicable form when submitting. A & AA teams have a different form than Thunder Bay Kings AAA teams. Please use the form on behalf of the team making the request.
