Coaching Certification
Good morning,
Emails have been sent to individual team staff advising of outstanding coaching certifications (all coaching certifications needed to be completed by December 1st). If you haven't completed all certifications or CRC, you are not permitted on the ice or bench until they are all completed. You can return to the ice/bench when they are visible on your HCR profile (ie. you may have shared your CRC but it needs to be showing on your HCR profile).
Following is the regulation from HNS regarding the penalties of going on the ice when not compliant:
11.13. Any team official who is found to be in violation of any section of HNS- Regulation #11- Coach Certification will be suspended indefinitely until certification for that official has been approved by HNS and it has been added to the HCR. The minimum suspension for a first offence is five [5] games, a second offence will result in the team official being suspended for one full calendar year. HNS, HNSMC and HNSFC reserve the right to lengthen these suspensions depending on the circumstance involved in each violation.
Thank you,
Craig Foley
