This step takes the longest, as it looks like there is only a mail back option now. This will then need to be forwarded to the OHF office at [email protected].
Look at this page to get a volunteer letter and email address to submit your VSC: https://www.omha.net/news_article/show/1109580
Once you have completed Steps 1 and 2, please send copies of your certificates to
[email protected]. Once he sees those, he will forward the link to register for the clinic. Please do this asap, as we require a minimum of 20 people to run the clinic, and if this number is not met, then the clinic will be cancelled.
For the on-ice portion of the clinic, you will need to bring skates, certified helmet, half visor, neck guard and a whistle. For the season, you will need those items, plus a ref jersey, and black pants. You can usually find stuff locally, but Ron has had good luck with this site for ordering his gear: https://refstuff.ca/
Always looking for more officials, so if you know of anybody else interested, please forward this information to them, and ask them to contact Ron at this email address.
