New Procedure for Vulnerable Sector Check
Please note that if you are interested in volunteering on or off the ice you will be required to complete the new Vulnerable Sector Check with the OHF. Details and process is outlined below:

The centralization of all Vulnerable Sector Checks will be conducted by the Ontario Hockey Federation (OHF) for all Team Officials and Team Personnel for the 2024-2025 season to:
-ensure all screening is being done.
-reduce number of screenings where individuals are changing and/or participating in multiple Associations.
-provide a safe hockey environment.




Screening of all On-Ice Officials has been in place the past number of years. Minor Hockey Associations will continue to screen Staff and Board members that are not involved in on-ice programming.

The following individuals who are associated with the OHF, Members, hockey leagues, hockey Clubs and/or Associations must adhere to the OHF Screening Policy and submit to the Ontario Hockey Federation:

-Team officials (including but not limited to head coaches, assistant coaches, trainers, managers and at large team officials);
-On-ice officials
-Anyone else, included but not limited to on-ice volunteer, skills coaches, third party skills coaches and dressing room supervisors, through their duties on behalf of the OHF, a Member, a hockey Club or Association.
