The Grey Highlands Hawks are an United Hockey Union-sanctioned junior ice hockey team from Markdale, Ontario, Canada. They are a member of the Canadian Premier Junior Hockey League and began play in the 2016–17 season.
In 2016, a two-year agreement was reached between Grey Highlands and Hawks owners Carrie Robertson and Cory Lafonte. The team played their first season in 2016–17 and won the first round playoff series over the Glengarry Highlanders. They were eliminated in the round-robin, losing to all three other teams. The following season, the Brampton Royals, a 2017 expansion team, was merged into the Hawks roster a week before the start of the season.
