The winner of the OJHL playoffs, the Orillia Travelways, won the OHA Buckland Cup and then the Dudley Hewitt Cup as Central Canadian champions. In 1984, the Callaghan Cup champion from the east did not compete in the National playdowns, so the Travelways gained a direct berth into the 1984 Centennial Cup. The Travelways failed to win the Centennial Cup.[1]
