It takes a Village to raise a hockey player, join ours.
In Memory of Greg Hopper
It's with a heavy heart that the Victoria Village Hockey League announces the passing of a true pillar of our community, Mr. Greg Hopper (March 2, 1954 - March 22, 2025).
Greg dedicated over two decades of volunteer service as President of the Victoria Village Hockey League. Greg's commitment, leadership and passion for the game will be fondly remembered. He touched on thousands of families within the community and had a particular affinity for those kids who were just starting in their Hockey Journey, some of whom went on to receive scholarships and others who currently play within the NHL.
Greg's wit and genuine caring for each and every participant's enjoyment will be missed. We extend our heartfelt condolences to Greg's family and loved ones during this difficult time. Please keep them in your thoughts.
Thank you Greg for all you've done.

Mustangs History
The Don Mills Mustangs are steeped in hockey history and fuelled by community involvement. In 1960, the Don Mills Hockey Association (DMHA) was founded. It was affiliated with the Don Mills Civitan House League and operated rep teams (known as the Don Mills North Stars) at the A, AA, and AAA levels.
Over time, GTHL clubs had to choose between operating teams at the AAA or A/AA levels, no longer both. This saw the creation of the Don Mills Flyers AAA and the Don Mills Mustangs, which remained affiliated with the Don Mills Civitan House League.
In 2021, after over 60 years of servicing the Don Mills community, offering quality hockey development and providing support to families and children requiring special assistance, the Don Mills Civitan Club, hung up their skates for the final time.
The Victoria Village Hockey League is proud to welcome the Mustangs into their hockey family and to continue their legacy of promoting youth sports in the community.
FAQ
HOW MUCH DOES THE MUSTANGS REP PROGRAM COST?
Each Mustangs team sets their own budget. A team’s cost depends on a number of factors (e.g. the number of practices, special skill coaches, tournaments and team wear).
In addition to team fees, each player must pay a Player Registration fee directly to the GTHL. You can read more about this fee here.
WHEN AND WHERE ARE GAMES AND PRACTICES?
League game times and locations are set by the GTHL. Mustangs teams will typically play 2 games per week (one ‘home’ game and one ‘away’ game). At the rep level, teams are assigned a ‘home game’ time/location. Meaning teams play 1 game each week at the same time and at the same arena (pending ice availability).
Each Mustang Team is given 1 hour of weekly practice ice. Times and location depend on team requests and ice availability and vary from season to season. Individual teams may schedule additional practice and training.
WHAT IS THE INDEPENDENT SAFE SPORT COMPLAINT PROCESS?
The Victoria Village Hockey League believes that hockey should be a safe space for all participants. We have a zero tolerance for maltreatment of any kind.
We encourage all individuals experiencing or witnessing maltreatment to communicate with Hockey Canada’s Independent Third Party (ITP). More information about the ITP, the process and its policies can be found at sportcomplaints.ca.
