Sackville Minor Hockey Association Powered by Goalline Sports Administration Software

Volunteer

 

Risk Management includes identifying, assessing and eliminating or minimizing risks in an activity, in this case, organized hockey. Risk management requires all participants in organized hockey to play specific roles in order to prevent accidents and injuries before they happen.

Sackville Minor Hockey has the responsibility of ensuring that all volunteers have completed the volunteer screening processes as outlined by the HNS screening policy. By making all our volunteers meet Hockey Nova Scotia's standards we reduce the risk of injuries and other incidents for players, as well as meeting our obligations as an Association.

PLEASE SEE TABS TO YOUR LEFT FOR RISK MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS AND COACHES CERTIFICATIONS.

The courses and certifications that you will need depend on your role in the association but EVERYONE (including all team officials, volunteers and the Board of Directors) must have:  (Must be competed by Dec 1st)
