Diamonds’ History

In 1998-99 John Donaldson realized the need for a Hockey Program for Special Needs Hockey Children in the Don Mills area.  

Don Mills Diamonds began with ten players in their first year, 1998 – 1999; playing other teams in the Don Mills Civitan House League and other Special Needs Hockey Teams within the GTA.   

In the fall of 2008 the Diamonds had grown and was divided into two teams.

To honour the founder of the Diamonds, the team name was changed from Don Mills Civitan Diamonds to Donaldson’s Diamonds.   In the Fall of 2008 Civitan John Donaldson was presented with the newly designed Hockey Jersey The Diamonds proudly wear today.
