June 10th will be an exciting day for local hockey prospects in the province, as the 2025 edition of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League Draft takes place.
The draft will begin at 1:00 PM that day and will be presented live from the IKS Media studios in Regina on the SJHL’s Facebook and X pages, as well as its YouTube channel.
“The SJHL Draft is an exciting time for the players, their families, and for SJHL teams. We are extremely excited to welcome these prospects to the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League and look forward to seeing many of them in our SJHL communities in the future,” said SJHL commissioner Kyle McIntyre.
It will be an eight-round draft, featuring two rounds of selections for 2010 birth-year players, followed by six rounds for 2009 birth-year players.
In total, 92 players are expected to be drafted, though some teams may pass on picks in the later rounds. Eligible players must be Saskatchewan residents from outside the 12 SJHL markets (or not 'auto-protected') and must not have been previously drafted by any SJHL team.
The 2025 Draft holds special significance for the Warman Wolverines, who are preparing for their inaugural season in the SJHL. The franchise, pending final approval, is set to take over the assets of the Notre Dame Hounds, including the first overall picks in both the 2009 and 2010 age groups.
