Official Clinics - 2025


Canmore Minor Hockey is hosting Level 1 and Level 2 Officials Clinics at the Canmore Recreation Centre on:

  • Saturday, September 27, 2025

  • Saturday, October 4, 2025

If you are interested in becoming a referee this season, please read all of the information carefully. These clinics fill up fast and once full, there is usually little to no movement—so don’t delay!

 


Certification Requirement

All referees must complete a clinic each season. Without it, your certification will expire in December of the current year.

If you’re not already registered to play or coach minor hockey, be sure to add the “Hockey Canada Insurance” option during registration—it’s mandatory and will save you time later.

 


Referee Rates

Referee pay rates can be found on the Hockey Alberta website. Rates are generally split between two officials, unless a three or four-person system is assigned. Last year, CMHA paid our officials 100% of the rates. 
Refereeing is a flexible way to earn some extra cash while staying active and involved in the game!

 


After the Clinic

Once you (or your player) complete the course, you’ll need to set up a RAMP Assigning profile if you don’t already have one.
Each official must have their own account. This platform is used to assign and communicate game information.
We recommend adding a parent email if the referee is not an active email user. CMHA pays officials via direct deposit, so we will require banking information from all referees. Details on how to submit this securely will be shared closer to the start of the season.

RAMP Assigning - How to Create Your Profile

 


Before Registering

All officials must complete an online course prior to attending the in-person clinic.
Details are available through Hockey Alberta’s resources:

The required course depends on the official’s certification level.

Spread the Word!

We’d love to see some of our older players explore the world of officiating.
We are also in need of adult officials and older referees (ages 15+) who can officiate U15 and U18 games in the Bow Valley—please share this opportunity with anyone who may be interested!
