2015-16 SJJHL Season

This is the 2015-16 St. John's Junior Hockey League.  This is the league's 36th season dating back to 1980-81. 
As the league is the only Junior B level league in the province the league playoff champion will advance to the 2016 Don Johnson Memorial Cup as well as a host team (Avalon Jr. Capitals).  The provincial champion is traditionally awarded the Veitch Memorial Trophy however, the trophy is not awarded when there is only one junior B league in the province as has been the case since the folding of the Central-West Junior Hockey League prior to the 2013-14 season.
