The Stratford Midgets were a junior ice hockey team that played in the Ontario Hockey Association. The team played at the Stratford Arena, now known as the William Allman Memorial Arena, in Stratford, Ontario.

They Midgets were Eastern Canadian Champions in 1921. Stratford were finalists for the J. Ross Robertson Cup in 1934 and 1937, losing to Toronto St. Michael's Majors both times.
