1963-64 OHA Junior A Season

This is the 1963-64 season of the Ontario Hockey Association's Junior A series:

Notes[]

The Metro Toronto Junior A League folded and the Toronto Marlboros and Oshawa Generals joined this league. The Oshawa Generals played in Bowmanville since they had no arena in Oshawa.

The Toronto Maple Leafs, the Marlboros' parent team, had applied for an expansion franchise in London. The OHA refused but the Marlboros played two home games in London. The Toronto Marlboros were made up of the best players from the Metro Toronto Junior A League and ran away with the league.
