History

The Whitby Lawmen joined the OPJHL during its end-times Ontario Hockey Association Junior "A" Hockey League era. After a rocky first season and with the league coming into some turmoil, the Lawmen chose to take a one-year leave from the league. In 1986-87, the team took a look at the situation that the OJHL was in and decided it would be better to fold. At the end of that season, the OJHL folded as well.
