The British Columbia Ball Hockey Association (BCBHA) is a registered non-profit organization. It is officially recognized as the governing body of the sport in B.C. by the Canadian Ball Hockey Association. The BCBHA provides the following administrative services:

• To provide a fun and safe recreational activity for all levels of competition from house league to elite programs
• To be a leader in the sport's development across British Columbia
• To foster, develop and administrate the sport of ball hockey across British Columbia
• To maintain, distribute and uphold the rules and regulations of ball hockey in British Columbia

The BCBHA is governed on a day-to-day basis by its appointed President, and the volunteer Executive Directors, elected by the provincial member leagues. League delegates represent their members at BCBHA  annual general meetings and establish all rules and regulations governing the sport in the province of British Columbia. These delegates are volunteers elected by the players and leagues within each province.

Although the BCBHA was officially incorporated in 1980, the first Men’s "A" Provincial Championship actually was held in 1979 which the Renfrew Flyers, from Vancouver, captured the inaugural title. This event has continued annually since then, with the top teams from each league qualifying through their respective league championships.

Over the years storied franchises have arisen, and many outstanding athletes have left their mark on the history of the sport. A detailed list of medal winning teams and a list of the game’s greatest players can be found under the History/Champions section of this website.

In order to promote provincial play at the less competitive levels, the BCBHA began hosting Men’s ‘B’ Provincial Championships in 1986, and expanded to ‘C’ Provincial Championships in 1993. Together with the "A" provincial championships this annual event is designed to gather the league champions in the province, with the winners being promoted to the next higher level of play in the following year

The first Women’s Provincial Championships were held in 1989, with the Richmond Vikings winning the championship. The women’s game has grown steadily since that time, and featured many B.C. athletes and teams at the elite level of the game. Most recently B.C. female athletes showed their talent winning Gold at the inaugural 2007 Women's World Championships in Germany, where 10 of the 24 players representing Canada were from B.C.

All member leagues must follow the rules & regulations of the BCBHA and CBHA. A copy of the CBHA rulebook is distributed to each team at the start of each year. Additional copies can be purchased from the BCBHA.

The current BCBHA regulations are subject to change each year at the annual general meeting of leagues and executives.. Any questions or suggestions should be channeled through your leagues to the BCBHA. If you are unable to obtain the info you require, you may contact the BCBHA President
