The BC Hockey League has pushed the start of its regular season to the week of Feb. 8 after the provincial health orders and restrictions around team sports were extended until Feb. 5.
The league had planned to start in mid-January if restrictions were eased when the previous order expired as scheduled today.
“Although it is frustrating to have to delay our season start once again, we are in no way, shape or form throwing in the towel on the 2020-21 season,” said BCHL Commissioner Chris Hebb. “We understand why the order was extended and we will continue to work with the PHO on scenarios to start a season in a safe manner.”
.@GoBCHL commissioner Chris Hebb says his league pitched a "hub idea," for the Junior A league but couldn't get approval from health authorities and it's off the table now. "We're pitching other ideas. We're coming up with ways to play even more regionally," he said.
