Attention Harvesters fans, this is one to get excited about.

Please join us in officially welcoming our Coaching Staff for the 2026/27 season.

We’re bringing it home with three names that know this community, this game, and what it takes to win:

- Head Coach: Andrew Priest
- Assistant Coach: Jake Bouzis
- Assistant Coach: Rob Conn

Andrew Priest and Jake Bouzis arrive after a statement season with the Midland Flyers, leading the program to its strongest finish in seven years and earning 2025/26 PJHL Carruthers Division Coaching Staff of the Year honours.

Before Midland, “Priester” and “Bouzi” set the standard right here in Elmvale, guiding the U18 Coyotes to back-to-back OMHA Tier 1 Championship appearances and capturing the Red Hats in 2024.

Rob Conn rounds out the bench with a résumé that speaks for itself. A product of Elmvale hockey, Rob spent three seasons with the Barrie Colts and brings a high-level understanding of the game that will translate directly to our lineup.

This group doesn’t need time to learn what we’re building. They already live it. They bring credibility, structure, and a mindset focused on pushing this team forward.

We’re building off momentum. This is the next step.

Give them the welcome they deserve.

We wouldn’t be here without all the amazing people behind the scenes making it all happen.

To every volunteer who gave their time, energy, and commitment this season, you are the engine that drives the Elmvale Harvesters. Your impact shows up in every game night, every detail, and every moment our community comes together.

Thank you for everything you gave this year. We can hardly wait to get back in the rink with you and the rest of our harvesters family! 🌾❤️

As we reflect on the inaugural season of the Elmvale Harvesters, our hearts are full. We set out to bring Senior hockey back to our hometown, but we couldn’t have hit the ice without the incredible local businesses that stepped up to support us from day one.

To our sponsors: your investment stayed right here in the community, fueling every game, every goal, and every connection made in the stands and combine club. Thank you for believing in the Harvesters and for being the backbone of this team. We are proud to represent the local businesses that make this area so special. Thank you for being part of the Harvesters family. We can’t wait to see what year two brings!

Year one ✔️

Elmvale, you showed up.

Over the past few weeks, our community came together in an incredible way for our Kraft Hockeyville nomination, and we couldn’t be more proud.

While Elmvale was not selected as Ontario’s recipient this year, the effort and spirit behind our nomination were nothing short of remarkable. Across the province, more than 500 arenas participated in the Hockeyville program, and Elmvale stood tall among them. Considering the short window we had to organize and rally the community, the response we received was truly something special. We also extend our congratulations to the Ontario provincial recipient, Blackstock. Small-town arenas like ours are the heart of our communities and all are deserving of investment and support.

And when we talk about success, we measure it by something even more meaningful than the final result: the pride, participation, and community spirit that Elmvale showed throughout this entire process.

To everyone who submitted a story, posted a photo, wrote a rally note, shared our posts, or encouraged someone else to participate, thank you. You helped show the entire country what Elmvale is all about.

This may be the end of this year’s Hockeyville journey, but one thing is certain… we’ll be back next year.

And if this nomination proved anything, it’s that when Elmvale comes together, amazing things happen.

— Harvesters GM Jared Robertson and Councillor Matt Garwood

The first season.
The first team.
The first believers.

Thank you, Elmvale 🥅🌾

As we wrap up our inaugural season, one thing is clear: this community is what makes the Harvesters special.

It is the pride in this town.
The energy in the Silo.
A town that shows up, stands behind its team, and makes this place something truly unique.

From the very beginning, YOU showed us that.

From the start, YOU rallied behind us with unwavering support. After the fair, you couldn’t go anywhere without seeing Harvesters gear. Hats, hoodies, and shirts were everywhere.

When our seasons tickets sold out in less than an hour, it was clear that YOU had already bought in. For our players who were new to Elmvale, that first night in the Silo was an eye opener. Walking into a packed arena and feeling that energy showed them exactly what hockey means in this town.

Our local players already carried immense pride in representing their hometown. But stepping onto the ice that first night and seeing the community rally around our new team made EVERY player feel pride in wearing Elmvale across their chest.

Seeing the bright eyes of young fans lined along the glass brought extra meaning to every game. The Harvester Hustlers skating with our flags, kids waiting for high fives as players headed to the ice, and lines for autographs after the game quickly became special moments throughout the season.

For those kids, the Harvesters weren’t just a team. Our players became their hometown celebrities and role models. The ones who made them want to pick up a stick, lace up their skates, and dream about being out there one day.

While the kids brought energy and excitement, the parents and longtime hockey fans helped make something truly special happen. Game after game, your cheers, waves, and the sound of cowbells ringing through the Silo lifted our players and fueled their passion.

But what happened in the Silo wasn’t just about hockey.

Your support allowed us to make a real impact within the community. From the Teddy Bear Toss to Food Bank Night, the success of our theme nights was driven by your generosity.

Record-breaking attendance and participation in the 50/50 draws turned every game into a celebration. Week after week, YOU packed the Silo and made it one of the best buildings in the league.

And your support didn’t stop at the arena doors.

It carried throughout the entire community.

YOU shared posts.
You travelled to away games.
You tuned into the livestream.
You attended watch parties.
And proudly wore Harvesters gear wherever you went.

For some of you, that Harvesters pride even became permanent 🖋️

Seeing the way YOU rallied around our team has been incredible.

Everything we are and everything we accomplished this season was because of YOU.

YOU were the extra player on the ice.
YOU were our #1 STAR.
YOU were the true MVP of our inaugural season.

We cannot say thank you enough.

Thank you for believing in the Harvesters.
Thank you for filling the Silo with your energy.
Thank you for standing behind our team every step of the way.

Our inaugural season may be over, but the Harvesters legacy is only beginning.

We cannot wait to show you what we have in store for next season.

Only 150 DAYS until tryouts. It will be here before you know it.

Final.

The Harvesters fall in Game 4 and our playoff run comes to an end.

A tough night for the boys, with Kelly getting our lone goal in the second period. Minto took control of the game and earned all three stars on the night.

Hey, that’s baseball.

Thank you to every fan who packed the Silo, travelled with us, and supported this team all season long. The noise, the energy, and the pride in Elmvale never went unnoticed.

Best of luck to the Minto 81’s as they move forward.

Go Harvs 🌾🥅
