  9. Suspension Reporting • The ODMHA code of discipline, Item 9.0 c) of the ODMHA handbook, defines the Coach’s role pertaining to suspensions. The following explains this procedure in District 4. • COMPETITIVE LEAGUE TEAMS MUST • Report any Code of Discipline offence that results in the player/official being removed from the game and confirm the discipline (if any) to be assessed (number of games to be served). • See Handout. The ref provides the ruling, District 4 provides the suspension – they track the player/coach history! Don’t ask the ref how many games to serve…..

  10. Bench Staff Certification Review • Team Managers – • Speak Out Clinic • Trainers – • Level 1, 2 or 3 plus Speak Out • Assistant Coaches: • Coach Stream Clinic (includes Speak Out) • Head Coaches: • Competitive – Coach Development Clinic

  11. Bench Staff continued… • Any extra practice coaches that help on the ice must be insured, extra parents/helpers can be insured for $30 per person. • Any sibling under 16 must be in full gear. • Any sibling over 16 must have Speak Out.

  12. On-Ice Helpers • It is also important to stress, that team officials are to utilize sound judgment when selecting a young person as an on-ice helper. These decisions must be made from a developmental and supportive perspective. We want these “helpers” to provide assistance to the other team officials, while gaining knowledge and experience of a teaching type role. This is not designed as an opportunity for players to get extra ice time. • - Individuals that volunteer within an association must be either; a “registered” member of a Minor Hockey Association, or a Junior Hockey League, or an on-ice official. • This ensures that the insurance coverage has been secured.

  13. Continued… • - Individuals may volunteer with a team during practices. They may only be demonstrators/helpers and are not to partake in any scrimmages as a player would. • - Individuals that volunteer must be at minimum, one age division higher than the team which they are volunteering with. And are not permitted to volunteer, as an on-ice helper, with a team at the same or higher division. • - Individuals that volunteer must wear full gear if they are 16 or under. • - Individuals, who are not registered team officials, and who are 16 years of age or older are must attend the Speak Out Clinic. • NOTE: All team players must wear full gear for all games and practices with their own team.
