The Southern Ontario Junior Hockey League is a Junior level Ice Hockey league sanctioned by the Ontario Hockey Association based out of Southwestern Ontario . :Shamrock Junior "D" Hockey League 1960 - 1969 :Western Junior "D" Hockey League 1969 - 1991 ::Northern Junior "D" Hockey League Merged in 1985 ::Southern Counties Junior "D" Hockey League Merged in 1988 :Junior Development Hockey League 1991 - 2006 :Southern Ontario Junior Hockey League 2006 to Present HISTORY The SOJHL was known as the OHA Junior Development Hockey League until the Summer of 2006. The OHAJDL was created from the merging of the Western Junior "D" Hockey League and the Southern Counties Junior "D" Hockey League and absorption of the folded Northern Junior "D" Hockey League. The league carries no official grading like other leagues in the OHA, and acts as the farm system for many local Junior "B" teams. The league has a long history and is the product of the many downsizings of classifications in the OHA. The winner of the SOJHL's playoffs earns the Ontario Hockey Association Cup, but this may change soon. The skill level of the SOJHL is comparable to the Eastern Ontario Junior C Hockey League . During the summer of 2006, the "Yeck Conference" applied to break off from the league and start their own Junior "C" league, but were turned down by the OHA. A talented and entertaining league, the SOJHL has is a long standing tradition of the OHA in the Southwestern Ontario region. THE TEAMS 2006-07 OHA CUP PLAYOFFS
