The main reason behind ozone hole is the reaction of the chlorine molecules from CFC's. These molecules initiate a chain reaction which then destroy the ozone molecules to form the ozone hole.

Why are there no hole in the ozone layer when spacecrafts leave the ozone layer?

The ozone layer is just a layer of gas, so while the ozone might get "stirred up" a bit, it does not form a hole. An ozone hole is not a physical hole; it's only an area in the ozone layer where the ozone levels are very low because of decomposition by chemicals. Consider this: If you move your hand through the air, does it leave a vacuum behind? No. The air around it fills in the space almost instantly. Same thing with the spacecraft going through the ozone layer.
