As per the OSA’s Operational Procedures Section 9.1 Leagues Procedure 20.0, the OSA has 4 Affiliation Agreements:

Grassroots – To allow organizations operating Grassroots programs to affiliate with one another, in order to fill the gaps at certain age groups and be able to offer suitable programs for Grassroots aged players if an equivalent program is not offered at one organization.

Youth Amateur – To allow organizations operating Youth Amateur Teams to affiliate with another, in order to allow players from one organization to play up to the other organization in League games only.

Youth to Senior – To allow organizations operating Youth Amateur Teams to affiliate with an organization only operating Senior Amateur Teams in order to allow players from the Youth Amateur Team to play up to the Senior Amateur Team in league games only.

Pro-Am to Amateur – To allow an Amateur Organization to affiliate with a Pro-Am Organization within League1 Ontario in order to allow players from the Amateur Team to play up to the Pro-Am Team in League1 Ontario.

Each of the above Affiliation Agreements listed have been updated and posted to the OSA’s website under the governing documents section, but have also been linked to each of the titled agreements above.

The documents have been updated to include an ‘intent’ statement and simplified the ‘terms’ for each agreement.

In order to take effect, each agreement must be approved and filed with the applicable District Association(s), League, and OSA.

Once approved at the District level, please send all Affiliation Agreements to Charonne Thomasos. Any further questions in this regard may be directed to Charonne Thomasos.
