The 2015–16 NOJHL season is the 38th season of the Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League (NOJHL).

In March 2016, the top teams of each division play for the Copeland-McNamara Trophy, the NOJHL championship. The winner of the Copeland-McNamara Trophy will compete in the Central Canadian Junior "A" championship, the Dudley Hewitt Cup. The Kirkland Lake Gold Miners will automatically compete in the Dudley Hewitt Cup as they are the host team for 2016. If successful against the winners of the Ontario Junior Hockey League and Superior International Junior Hockey League, the Cup champion would then move on to play in the Canadian Junior Hockey League championship, the 2016 Royal Bank Cup.
