Bench Qualifications
MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR EVERY BENCH
Much of the stress and delay in getting teams rostered is actually the Bench Staff. Every year the Head Coach must pick a Trainer and a Manager. After that they can pick an assistant coach and an assistant trainer if they like but they are not required positions to get a team's roster approved. The coach should make this decision early and ensure those people are actually qualified to be on the bench. Sometimes the only way to know if the qualifications of a person are current is to email the Registrar (
[email protected]
) and have them check. You will need to provide you name and date of birth in the email.
Please note you cannot roster a team until you have qualified people. You must identify those 3 key positions for your bench:
Head Coach, Trainer and Manager
. Once you have these three people in place you can then add assistants. Hockey Canada will not allow the team to be rostered until these positions are filled first.
Each member of the bench must meet the requirements outlined in this document.

Your qualifications are electronically upload to your profile by the OMHA and will then allow you to be rostered to a team in that position
GENDER
IDENTITY AND EXPRESSION COURSE
Please note that as of 2017, ALL bench staff MUST complete the new Gender Identity and Expression course before they may be rostered with their team. This is an online course that takes approximately 2 hours, with no test at the end.
