TEAM STATEMENT:
Following the NPHLβs announcement regarding the 2026β27 participation status of the Stratford Irish and Halton Hills Coyotes, the Tilbury Bluebirds Hockey Club stands united with the League and its Member Organizations as we move forward.
These decisions followed a formal governance process and extensive discussion regarding League operations, accountability, member confidence and the long-term stability of the NPHL.
We recognize that these decisions affect players, coaches, volunteers, sponsors, supporters and communities connected to both organizations. They should not be interpreted as a reflection on those individuals or their contributions to Senior hockey.
Out of respect for the confidentiality of the process, our organization will not comment on individual participants, owner statements, voting results or internal deliberations.
Our focus is now firmly on moving forward together and delivering a stable, competitive and successful 2026β27 season.
