The Canada Ball Hockey Association (CBHA) and the British Columbia Ball Hockey Association (BCBHA) are proud to announce that they’ve successfully reached a settlement agreement through the Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada (SDRCC).
The CBHA and BCBHA have engaged in constructive conversations since June and concluded a third-party resolution on November 18, 2024. To ensure the process was fair and followed best practices, both parties engaged in the resolution process with an experienced facilitator through the SDRCC. The SDRCC is a government funded organization providing third-party resolution, mediation and arbitration services for sport disputes in Canada.
As a result of the settlement agreement, CBHA’s suspension of BCBHA has been lifted, effective November 18, 2024. While the specifics of the agreement are bound by confidentiality, both parties have committed to improved governance structures and policies to benefit ball hockey and its stakeholders.
Players in BCBHA member associations can rest assured that they remain eligible for BCBHA and CBHA events and teams in 2025 and beyond.
The CBHA and BCBHA are excited to reach this agreement and shift their collective focus to a better tomorrow for ball hockey.
Yours in Sport,
