Sarnia Sting News Release


The Ontario Hockey League announced today the end of return to play plans for the 2020-21 season and the cancellation of the campaign. The Official press release from the OHL can be found below.

Sarnia Sting president Bill Abercrombie admits this is disappointing to everyone involved but the Club remains committed to growth ahead of the 2021-22 season.

"This is obviously very disappointing news for our League and our Organization. Our players have continued to work very hard in preparation for a modified season and staff have stepped up to continue to push and make the best of the situation. To not get the opportunity to showcase these efforts is crushing, however we understand the situation this virus has put us in and respect the decision made today."

"Throughout this past year we have used this time to evaluate our strengths and identify areas of weakness as an organization. I am proud of the efforts we have made to find growth in this. I am excited with some of the new initiatives we have implemented and the direction we are heading as a group.

We will continue to use this off-season to commit to bettering ourselves as a hockey team, organization and pillar in the Sarnia-Lambton community. All in preparation for a big return to the 2021-22 season."

The Sarnia Sting expect to return to playing in front of their fans at Progressive Auto Sales Arena come the fall.

Season Tickets Holders can rest assured knowing their credits are on file and seats will be ready and waiting for them come the return of Sarnia Sting Hockey. Further ticketing details will be released as they become available.
