Minor Bantam, Major Bantam, & Midget
House League *

competitiveness (Rep level), availability of ice time, etc.
Certification
Coaching and staff positions
require a varying degree of mandatory certification. Each team should
include a coach, Assistant Coach(s), Trainer and Manager with a coach and
trainer being the minimum. In the event of a team not having a
manager, the coach would be responsible for managing duties. Each
position requires at a minimum, a current police check and Speak Out
Certification. In addition to the latter, the Coach and Assistant Coaches
require a coaching certification (Initiation Certification at the
Initiation, Tyke and Novice levels), the Trainer requires a current
Trainer's certificate (valid for 3 years from date of issue).
Prior to the 2008 season a body Checking Certification was required
beginning at the Minor Atom Rep level because this was the initial
introductory year to body checking. Beginning with the 2008 season, body
checking will not begin until the peewee age group. Changes to
certification has yet to be clarified.
The above staffing
certification must be obtained prior to being registered with a team.
