By completing and submitting this Application Form, I hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:
Bench Staff Requirements I understand that at least one (1) member of my bench staff must hold a current certified Trainer designation as required by OWHA. I further understand that all proposed bench-staff listed under my application must complete and submit their own application forms referencing this application.
Further Certifications I acknowledge that I, and/or members of my bench staff, may be required to attend coaching clinics, and to obtain or maintain further certifications (for example: “Respect in Sport”, coaching/training certifications, first aid/CPR, etc.), depending on the nature of my assignment and/or their roles.
Police Record (Vulnerable Sector) Checks For the safety of all participants, I will obtain a Vulnerable Sector Check from the local police jurisdiction, and submit the completed Vulnerable Sector Check to the appropriate authority within the Ontario Women’s Hockey Association (OWHA) portal. If I am a returning volunteer, I shall sign and submit the annual declaration required by the OWHA, and obtain a new Vulnerable Sector Check every two (2) years. I will ensure that a valid Vulnerable Sector Check has been submitted and approved prior to the beginning of the season. This requirement applies to all bench staff, coaching staff, support staff, development staff and any media or external partners associated with AAGHA.
Certifications & Authorisations / No Guarantee of Position I understand that submitting this Application does not guarantee that I will be offered a coaching (or bench-staff) position with AAGHA. I further understand that submission of this Application does not guarantee an interview. Should I be invited for an interview, I will make myself available to do so within reasonable notice. I further acknowledge that AAGHA’s Coach Selection Committee and Board have final responsibility for selecting applicants, and I accept that I have no recourse should I not be selected.
Dress-Room & Team Conduct Compliance I understand that, as a team official, I am expected to comply with AAGHA’s Dress-Room Policy, including the requirement that a minimum of two adult females be present in the dressing room whenever players are present, and that male coaches may only enter the dressing room 10 minutes prior to and up to 10 minutes following games or practices—and during those times a female adult must be present. I also acknowledge that team officials are expected to uphold the AAGHA Code of Conduct for all members, which prohibits disrespectful, abusive, racist or sexist behaviour, and behaviour that brings AAGHA or the sport into disrepute.
Accuracy of Information I hereby certify that all information I have submitted in this Application is true, complete and accurate.
