About North End Sports
According to the latest census, Winnipeg has the largest Indigenous population of any major city in the country. With a mission to strengthen Indigenous participation in positive healthy lifestyle activities, the MASRC believes that this means developing programs in Winnipeg.
With the exception of North End Hockey, if you are Indigenous and live in Winnipeg, you are eligible to participate. To be eligible to participate in the North End Hockey program, you must live within the boundaries of the North End.
If you are interested in hearing more about upcoming programs in the city, please subscribe to our mailing list!

NEW - Winnipeg Minor Basketball Association Teams
About the WMBA
The Winnipeg Minor Basketball Association (WMBA) was established in 1997 with a vision to provide a structured basketball league for Winnipeg area children, open for all to participate.
The WMBA is a community basketball league open to youth living in the city of Winnipeg. Games are on Saturdays or Sundays, with practices occurring on weeknights.
Team Eligibility
The Manitoba Aboriginal Sports & Recreation Council (MASRC) is a Provincial-Territorial Aboriginal Sport Body (PTASB).
Priority for the MASRC Central Storm basketball teams participating in the WMBA will go towards Indigenous (First Nations, Metis, Inuit, & Non-Status) & non-Indigenous youth living in and around the North End and Central areas.
Please click on the link below for a map of our program boundaries.

If an athlete has previously played with a WMBA team in the past, then they are ineligible for our program and must register with their respective team. We will not be accepting registrations for players who have participated in the WMBA before unless they now live within the catchment area as of January 2023.
Thank you for your cooperation.

North End Hockey
North End Hockey (formerly NEHP) helps to provide children and youth living in Winnipeg's North End with an opportunity to play organized hockey. The program is open to children aged 5 to 15 years who have a financial need and reside in the North End of Winnipeg.
North End Hockey currently has four teams participating in the Seven Oaks Minor Hockey Association.
We would like to acknowledge that Canadian Tire Jumpstart is providing our subsidy this year. Without the support of the Jumpstart Program the NEHP wouldn't be possible.
