Vulnerable Sector and Criminal Record Check

Every two seasons our team officials are required to have a Vulnerable Sector and Criminal Record Check completed. Here is the volunteer letter that you will need to take with you to your local RCMP station or an online process may be available. Please contact the Registrar to inquire.

These completed checks will be kept on file until an update is needed.

If you are interested in coaching for the 2022-2023 season, please complete the registration package here: http://canmoremha.rampregistrations.com/
