Eligibility to Coach
It is imperative for all Team Officials to ensure their Vulnerable Sector Check is complete to be eligible to programs on and off the ice. This includes a valid Vulnerable Sector Check (VSC) and the OHF Screening Declaration Form. If you do not have a current VSC, you must apply for one through the OPP as well as fill out the letter from the OHF Letter for VSC listed in the links below:

When you are notified that your check is done, download the PDF, save it, and upload it at the OHF Screening Submission Portal listed below. If you need help finding your HCR number, please contact Vicki Smith.
