The OHF/OHL Under-16 Program of Excellence is a development experience designed to educate and inform players and parents. The goals of the program include: to introduce players, families and staff to high performance hockey, the Program of Excellence and the Ontario Hockey League; to create a unique and special life and hockey experience for all players and staff involved; and to develop players and staff both on and off the ice.

Players will participate in intense, high performance on and off ice sessions and seminars. On-ice sessions include two practices and three games. Off-ice sessions include seminars with keynote speakers on topics such as sports psychology, nutrition, and fitness.

The programs in Kitchener and Oshawa will consist of six teams for a total of 120 players at each program (72 forwards, 36 defencemen and 12 goaltenders). The programs in Barrie, Sudbury, and Windsor will consist of four teams for a total of 80 players at each program (48 forwards, 24 defencemen and eight goaltenders). The program is open to all male players who were born in 1995 and are registered within the OHF; priority will be given to players competing at the AAA Level.
