6 BC HOCKEY BULLETIN ISSUE #: August 11, 2016 TO: BC Hockey Minor Hockey Associations FROM: Barry Petrachenko Chief Executive Officer SUBJECT: Criminal Record Checks for Minor Team Officials Regulation Adjustment Please note the change to Regulation 3.07 regarding the Criminal Record Check requirement of all BC Hockey Minor Team Officials. Regulation 3.07 All BC Hockey Junior and Minor Team Officials must submit a Criminal Record Check (CRC) and a Vulnerable Persons Check (VPC) prior to any team participation in practices and games. A satisfactory CRC and VPC is valid for three (3) playing seasons and then must be renewed thereafter. Reporting Requirement All BC Hockey Minor Team Officials are required to submit a Criminal Record Check (CRC) and Vulnerable Persons Check (VPC) to their respective Minor Hockey Association (MHA) prior to any team participation in practices and games every three (3) playing seasons. It is the responsibility of each MHA to ensure compliance with the Regulation, and the secure and confidential management of these records. BC Hockey will continue to administer all CRCs and VPCs at the Junior and Midget AAA levels. Resources A CRC and VPC consist of a criminal record name check performed by municipal police or local RCMP detachment. For residents of British Columbia, an online application available through the Ministry of Justice s Criminal Records Review Program (CRRP) is the recommended method to complete a CRC and VPC. It is recommended that MHAs register with the CRRP to receive free online record checks of volunteers that work with vulnerable people; this can be done by visiting the Ministry of Justice website ( Should you have any questions please contact the BC Hockey office at crc@bchockey.net. 5

7 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: June 22, 2016 Media Contact: Sean Orr Concussion Awareness Training Tool BC Hockey announced June 27, 2016 that all BC Hockey team officials are required to be qualified in the Concussion Awareness Training Tool (CATT) prior to their participation in any practice or game starting for the season. As a sports leader, BC Hockey is bringing concussion awareness to the forefront to ensure the safety of all participants and that team officials are aware and educated on concussion protocol and the Hockey Canada return to play procedure. In November 2015, the BC Hockey Development Committee listened to a presentation on the CATT online course and put forward a recommendation to mandate the course. This was presented and passed at the BC Hockey Annual General Meeting. BC Hockey is the first Hockey Canada Branch to require team officials to complete CATT. The BC Hockey membership should be applauded for their dedication to player safety. By implementing the CATT certification, they have taken a big step forward in concussion awareness and prevention, said BC Hockey Chief Executive Officer, Barry Petrachenko. Their commitment to educating coaches, parents and players about concussion management is the latest example of our focus on the player and the enhancement of the minor hockey experience for our participants. BC Hockey is setting a precedence by taking concussions seriously and being the first province to make concussion education mandatory for coaches or anyone required to be on the ice, commented Dr. Shelina Babul, Associate Director, Sports Injury Specialist I BC Injury Research & Prevention Unit. By raising the level of awareness and education on concussion prevention, recognition and management, we can ensure the safety of all registered hockey players in BC and the Yukon. This 40 minute online course is free for BC Hockey members and required before taking part in any practice or game. CLICK HERE to take CATT course. BC Hockey members who complete the CATT course prior to August 1, 2016 will be entered to win Vancouver Canucks tickets and BC Hockey prizes. This is an important step for BC Hockey, by potentially increasing the awareness and prevention of concussions in hockey. BC Hockey is pleased and proud of our membership in realizing the value in this program, added BC Hockey Safety Coordinator, Anne Deitch. Safety and education are primary focuses of BC Hockey. This initiative of partnering with CATT just solidifies our dedication to making the game safe for all participants. CATT provides up-to-date concussion education for parents and coaches. It includes video lessons and resources to effectively prevent, recognize and manage a players recovery. The program was developed by the BC Injury Research and Prevention Unit and endorsed by The Province of British 6

9 MEMORANDUM July 18, 2016 TO: BC Hockey Membership FROM: Barry Petrachenko Chief Executive Officer SUBJECT: Respect in Sport Expiration Please note the following adjustment to BC Hockey Policy 5.07, as approved by the BC Hockey Board and effective immediately: 5.07 RESPECT IN SPORT (RIS) GUIDELINES RIS is an on-line course for coaches and sport leaders. It is designed as a tool to assist coaches in identifying and dealing with abuse, neglect, harassment and bullying in sport. The minimum age for participants is sixteen (16) years old as of December 31 RIS certification expires after five (5) four (4) years. (commencing in the season) The adjustment to this policy is intended to provide volunteers with a slightly relaxed renewal period per feedback from Presidents of our member Districts. It hopes to strike a balance that ensures volunteers will still receive appropriate and current knowledge regarding important risk management information. All member records in the Hockey Canada Registry (HCR) have been updated to reflect the adjusted five (5) year expiration date. If you have any questions regarding this notice please contact info@bchockey.net 8

10 PCAHA BULLETIN #4 DATE: September 11, 2017 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: The Presidents PCAHA Member Associations/Leagues Lynne Kiang PCAHA President Game Numbers for Tryouts, Exhibition & Pre-Season Games ================================================================================ I would like to remind teams of their obligation to obtain exhibition game numbers for exhibition games: Section L(2) states as follows: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Any team wishing to play an exhibition game shall first obtain permission from its League Manager by way of an exhibition game number. Under no circumstances will an exhibition game be played without a game number. Failure to obtain a game number may result in suspension or other disciplinary action against the team official(s) responsible. If two PCAHA teams are playing in the exhibition game, the home team is required to obtain an exhibition game number and to enter the entire game sheet into the PCAHA on-line game data management system (currently known as Teamlink). In Hockey 2 to Hockey 4 (Initiation / Novice) if the two teams playing in the exhibition game report to different League Managers both teams shall obtain an exhibition game number. If a PCAHA team is playing an exhibition game against a non-pcaha team, the PCAHA team shall obtain an exhibition game number whether the game is at home or away. Please refer to Section F(6) regarding responsibility to submit game reports. The game number rule applies both to games between teams from different Associations and to games between teams of the same Association. The Hockey Canada playing rules define a game as, "A meeting of two teams playing for a specific length of time, for the purpose of declaring a winner through the scoring of goals. The game consists of regular playing time and overtime, if such is required." This definition has only limited usefulness. Obviously, "declaring a winner" is not a distinguishing factor for Hockey 2, Hockey 3 and Hockey 4 (Initiation / Novice) games, where no score is kept, and for exhibition games at other levels. The intent of the game number rule is not to prevent teams that regularly practice together from using the last 15 minutes or half hour of their practice for a controlled scrimmage. However, in the past some teams have attempted to expand the "scrimmage" to play what is really a game. In one documented case, two teams held a 10 minute "practice" (really a warm-up), followed by a 1 hour "scrimmage", with score clock, uniforms, and a referee. This event was, in fact, a game. Fundamentally, I am asking that all teams be honest about their activities, both to their Association officials and to their PCAHA League Manager, and not attempt to hide behind euphemisms. Also, please consider that those involved in referee development at the local level are concerned that opportunities for beginner referees to gain game experience may be limited because some teams seem 9

11 to prefer to have their exhibition games officiated by the coaches of the participating teams rather than by carded referees. This seems to be especially true in Hockey 3, Hockey 4, (Novice) and in some cases Atom "C". Games at Hockey 4 (Novice Major) and above should be officiated by carded referees. I would appreciate your assistance in ensuring distribution of this bulletin to teams within your Association. Yours sincerely, Lynne Kiang PCAHA President cc.

17 HOCKEY CANADA INFORMATION BULLETIN D INFORMATION Bulletin No.: I1612 To / Destinataires: Hockey Canada Directors Council Chairs Member Presidents Life Patrons Member Executive Directors RIC s Hockey Canada Staff Date: August 31, 2016 File / Dossier: From / Expéditeur : Todd Jackson Director, Insurance and Membership Services SUBJECT / OBJET : IMPORTANT MESSAGE REGARDING HAZING As we move into the hockey season Hockey Canada would like to take this opportunity to emphasize the current regulation that exists with respect to hazing. Hockey Canada takes hazing very seriously and urges all team staff and those involved with teams across Canada to implement strict policies against hazing regardless of the level of hockey you are involved with. The Hockey Canada policy currently defines hazing as an initiation practice that may humiliate, demean, degrade, or disgrace a person regardless of location or consent of the participant(s). Regulation O4 reads as follows: A player, team official, executive member, team, club, association, or any other Hockey Canada Registered Participant found, by an investigative process, to have condoned, initiated or, to the detriment of another, participated in hazing actions or behaviours shall be subject to discipline up to and including expulsion from Hockey Canada registered programs. 16

18 Discipline must relate to the degree of severity of the incident(s). a) Any party failing to cooperate with the fact finding process may be subject to suspension as determined by the Branch. b) All discipline decisions related to hazing must be approved by the Branch. c) All hazing matters involving Hockey Canada High Performance programs will be dealt with by the Hockey Canada Board of Directors. Hockey Canada urges all those involved to educate and create awareness around the negative consequences of hazing and to help create a positive environment for all Hockey Canada registered participants in the season. Sincerely, Todd Jackson Director, Insurance and Risk Management HOCKEY CANADA Action Bulletin d action 2 17

19 PCAHA Rulebook Season P.C.A.H.A. SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCE 1. Enhanced Catastrophic Injury Insurance: The PCAHA carries an enhanced catastrophic injury insurance policy for players and volunteers (under age 70) participating with the PCAHA s member Associations to offset some of the unique and substantial expenses incurred if an individual suffers a catastrophic injury. Catastrophic injury is defined as quadriplegia (complete and permanent paralysis of both upper and lower limbs), paraplegia (complete and permanent paralysis of both lower limbs), or hemiplegia (complete and permanent paralysis of upper and lower limbs of one side of the body). The principal sum under this policy ($400,000) is over and above the coverage provided under the Hockey Canada Accidental Death and Dismemberment Policy ($1,000,000). 2. Out-of-Province Travel Medical Insurance: The PCAHA carries excess hospital/medical insurance to ensure that individuals travelling with a Canadian-based PCAHA team for sanctioned league/playoff, exhibition, or tournament games in the United States and in Canada outside B.C. are covered for costs over and above B.C. government medical should they require emergency medical attention or hospitalization during the trip. All Canadian players, team officials, volunteers, and parents/siblings under age 70 of the Canadian players travelling with the team are covered for travel and activities directly connected with the game(s). All insured persons must have Canadian government medical coverage in force to qualify. To activate this policy, teams must have obtained proper sanction for the game(s) in question, including exhibition game number(s) or tournament permission from the team s League Manager and the PCAHA Office [see PCAHA Sections L(2), L(3), L(4), and L(5)]. Failure to obtain proper sanction for games in the United States or in Canada outside B.C. will result in all insurance coverage being void. Highlights of coverage are: $2,000,000 sum insured for emergency excess hospital/medical expenses; licensed local ambulance to the nearest medical facility; x-rays; out-patient services; prescription medication; dental injury included; return of vehicle up to $500; and family transportation and accommodation benefit up to $5,000. Exclusions: Coverage does not include extra days prior to or after the scheduled game(s); does not include persons 70 or more years of age or less than 15 days old; and does not cover pregnancy, childbirth, or related complications. Other exclusions, deductions, and limitations may also apply. Additional insurance to cover extra days or excluded persons can be purchased through Whyte Insurance Services Ltd. ( ) or other insurance agents. Claims Procedure: Notification of insurance claims must be provided. Please note that some medical service providers (e.g. ambulance companies) may not bill for a considerable period of time after the incident. For claim procedures, please contact the PCAHA Office This summary is intended only as an outline of the key features of the program, which is governed by the terms of the Group Insurance Policy. The wording of the Policy shall govern in all situations. If there are any questions about coverage, please contact Laurie Kay of Whyte Insurance Services Ltd., at

By the same token, Off-Ice Officials should conduct themselves in a professional manner and refrain from criticizing the workof any of their fellow officials, including the On- Ice Officials. Off-Ice Officials are under the supervision of the Referee, who is in charge of the game. The Referee shall have full authority and the final decision in all matters under dispute.
