NEW TO MINOR HOCKEY
(NO HOCKEY CANADA ID)
If you are a first-time Hockey Canada volunteer and you have NEVER played minor hockey or in the ASHL, we need to create your Hockey Canada ID before you complete your Criminal Record Check, Respect in Sport - Activity Leader, and CATT. There is a link below to provide the information needed to create your HC ID. Please allow a minimum of 48 hours for our Administrator to contact you with your profile and provide you with the next steps. Do not move to STEP 2 until you have received this information.
NEW TO LMHA
(EXISTING HOCKEY CANADA ID)
If you have played minor hockey before, have been a rostered team official with ANY Minor Hockey Association or played in the ASHL, we need to transfer your profile to our database. There is a link below to provide us with the information we need to transfer your Hockey Canada profile to LMHA.
RETURNING TO LMHA
(TEAM OFFICIAL WITH LMHA IN PREVIOUS SEASON)
If you have been a Team Official with LMHA in previous seasons, have LMHA check your certifications to expedite the application process.
