COMMITMENT

Joining the Skates requires
dedication. Our season consists of a
20-game schedule, split evenly
between home and away series.
To maintain a competitive edge and ensure depth throughout the season,
we will carry a large active roster of up
to 30 players.

Example Schedule
A person in a black long sleeve shirt has their leg straight out and is applying medical tape to it

expenses

We are committed to supporting our athletes and staff to the fullest extent. The team covers all costs for game jerseys and travel logistics for away games, including transport and lodging. We are also actively securing sponsorship partners to help subsidize personal equipment costs in the future.

What's Covered?
People at a table signing documents and collecting hockey jerseys at a Player Check-In booth under a tent, with Ottawa Bears signage and hockey apparel in the background.

player bonus pool

Shared success is our core philosophy. A significant percentage of net profits flows directly into the Player Bonus Pool. With a sellout of just 10 home games, we estimate this pool could reach as much as $50,000, which is distributed to players based on the number of games played.
