The Ontario Hockey League is one of the three Major Junior ice hockey leagues which constitute the Canadian Hockey League. The league is for players aged 15-20.

The OHL also operates under the Ontario Hockey Federation (OHF) of Hockey Canada.

The league was formed in 1974 out of the Major Junior A Tier I division of the Ontario Hockey Association.

David Branch has been the only Commissioner of the OHL from this time. Since 1980 the league has grown rapidly into a high profile marketable product, with many games broadcast on television and radio.

There are currently 20 teams in the OHL; 17 are based in Ontario, 2 teams in Michigan and 1 team in Pennsylvania. Out of the 17 teams based in Ontario 15 teams are in Southern Ontario and 2 teams are in Northern Ontario.

The three largest arenas in the OHL are Ottawa's Urbandale Centre, London's John Labatt Centre, and Windsor's WFCU Centre.
