Player Volunteers & On Ice Helpers

Requirements to become a coach or On-Ice Helper - U21, Alumni, Adult Members

Requirements for On-Ice Helpers and Player Volunteers:

Criminal Record Check (CRC): A mandatory step for all volunteers, including parents, wishing to be on the ice is to complete a Criminal Record Check. This is provided at no cost, using the access code: RDXVQWH9CU for submission.

Respect in Sport Activity Leader Training (RIS): In addition to the CRC, volunteers must complete the Respect in Sport Activity Leader program, ensuring a safe and respectful environment for all participants.

Protocol for Reporting Criminal Charges or Convictions:

Immediate Notification Required: It's imperative for any volunteer, including parents, who faces new criminal charges or convictions to report these to the organization immediately, especially when the role involves interaction with children or vulnerable adults.

Necessity for a New Criminal Record Check: Following such a report, a new Criminal Record Check must be initiated. This check, facilitated by the volunteer's organization, will be forwarded to the Criminal Records Review Program (CRRP). It's crucial to understand that any volunteer work with vulnerable groups cannot begin until this process is fully completed.
