2024–25 AJHL season

The 2024–25 AJHL season was the 61st season of the Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL). Competition began on 24 August 2024 with a 35-game exhibition season, followed by a 54-game regular season which ran from 13 September 2024 to 15 March 2025. The Calgary Canucks finished the regular season in first place overall, and went on to win the AJHL championship Inter Pipeline Cup and the national championship 2025 Centennial Cup. The Canucks hosted the national championship as well as the 2024 AJHL showcase.

Whitecourt Wolverines goaltender, Zac Onyskiw, was named most valuable player by the AJHL and the CJHL. The CJHL is made up of nine Junior A leagues (including the AJHL) from across Canada. Onyskiw finished the regular season with a 1.87 goals against average (GAA) and a save percentage of .939. Onyskiw and his teammate, Elliott Pratt, received the AJHL's top team goaltenders award, which is presented every year to the goalies whose team has the lowest GAA in the regular season. Pratt had a GAA of 2.56 and a .911 save percentage. The Wolverines finished the regular season with an overall GAA of 2.29.

Drumheller Dragons forward, Easton Daneault, was named rookie of the year by both the AJHL and the CJHL.

The league extended its pilot program of video goal review in select arenas that began in the 2023–24 season.

The governing body, Hockey Canada, and its four western regional affiliates – BC Hockey, Hockey Alberta, Hockey Saskatchewan and Hockey Manitoba – will pilot the Western Canadian Development Model (WCDM). Under the WCDM, junior leagues will adopt most of the Western Hockey League rulebook, excluding some sections, and restrictions on 15-year-old affiliate players in the Western Hockey League will be loosened. Players that will be 18-years of age or older in the calendar year will be allowed to choose whether to use full-face protection or half-face protection, whilst younger players will be required to use full-face protection.

The Devon Xtreme joined the league as an expansion team, bringing the total number of teams to 12. The team plays its home games in the Dale Fisher Arena, which opened in September 2024. The team hired Kelly Buchberger to be its general manager and head coach.

Similar to in years past, teams were organized into a North Division and a South Division. The surprise mid-season departure of five teams during the 2023–24 season — namely the Sherwood Park Crusaders and Spruce Grove Saints from the North Division and the Blackfalds Bulldogs, Brooks Bandits and Okotoks Oilers from the South Division — led to the consolidation of what was left of the divisions into a single unit for the remainder of the season. The updated divisional structure for this season is as follows:
