Well the 13th season of the WWHL is done and in my opinion one of the most competitive years on record.  
 
The Championship games were all one or two goal games. Congrats to West Fit Rangers and Eye Outfitters Jets and as well J and G Dynasty for winning their divisions.  
 
Special thank you goes to my staff and suppliers:  
Cam Harrison and Shelley Kokorudz for keeping excellent track of players stats and timekeeping.

Plus the 20 league captains and 350 players that make up the WWHL. Without your support and feedback the league would be nothing.  
Please feel free to submit to us your feedback and we will post it on line at www.wwhl.mb.ca  
 
A few rule changes will be proposed for the 14th season of the WWHL:  
Overtime will now follow the NHL shootout rules.  
No Tier 1 or 2 Junior players can be rostered on Division 3 teams.  
Expand into 4 Divisions.  
 
To quote one of my friends “lots of moving pieces make this operation happen from day to day“ he couldn’t more correct as I am proud to say that this is one of the best leagues in North America. We have excellent media relations, games broadcasted on TV, All Star Games, complete team and player stats, player insurance protection, team and player discounts and various local business’s. Overall another great season and we look forward to working with you all in October.
