Screening and training
Every coach and regular volunteer completes a criminal record check with a vulnerable sector search and Respect in Sport training before working with players. Checks are renewed on a set schedule and records are kept by the club, not by individual coaches.
The Rule of Two
Two screened adults are present whenever coaches are with players. No coach is alone with a player out of sight of others, at practice, on the road or online. Messages to players go to team channels that include a parent or a second coach.
Concussions
A player with a suspected concussion leaves the game or practice right away and does not return that day. They come back only with medical clearance, following the Canadian Guideline on Concussion in Sport.
Photos and privacy
We only post photos of players whose parents gave consent at registration. We never pair full names with photos of players under 18, and consent can be withdrawn at any time by emailing the club.
Codes of conduct
Players, parents, coaches and volunteers each sign a code of conduct at registration. Respect for officials, opponents and teammates is not optional, in the gym or online.
