Greater Toronto Hockey League


Founded in 1911 by the late Frank D. Smith, The Greater Toronto Hockey League (GTHL) is a not-for-profit organization and is the largest amateur minor hockey league in the world.  The GTHL consists of a league of 10,000 rep players from Minor Atom to Juvenile (9-20 year olds) and an additional 30,000 affiliated house league players between the ages of 4 and 21.   In addition, the GTHL provides jurisdiction for the Mississauga Hockey League (MHL), Scarborough Hockey Association (SHA), and the North York Hockey League (NYHL).  In total, approximately 40,000 players on 2,800 teams.

Many elite hockey players have graduated from the GTHL system over the years.  In fact, over the past decade, each year there have been at least 65 active NHL roster players who were graduates of the GTHL.  Some of the past and present greats include Frank Selke, Frank Mahovlich, Brendan Shanahan, Eric Lindros, Rick Nash, Jason Spezza, John Tavares, and many more.
