Parent Respect in Sport Requirement

Posted by Oceanside MHA at Oct 14, 2015 8:15PM PDT

Dear Oceanside MHA,

October 15 is almost upon us and thus the deadline for Oceanside parents/guardians to have completed their Parent Respect in Sport requirement as mandated by VIAHA. This must be completed by October 31, 2015 (no exceptions). For more information please go to the VIAHA website at www.viaha.org It only takes about an hour to complete. Please take time to read the up-dated FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) as this is very helpful.

If you do not complete Respect in Sport by Oct 31/2015, your child will be considered an ineligible player and we are required to remove them from the ice until one (1) parent/caregiver can take the on-line certification. To access the ‘Parent’ Clinic Version go to https://bchockeyparent.respectgroupinc.com

If you have a current ‘Team Official/Volunteer’ version of Respect in Sport, you do not need to take the parent version as well. However, please ensure that your address and your child’s address are the same or they will not link.

If you have already completed your Parent Respect in Sport, thank you.

Sincerely,

Gwynn Dykstra
Risk Manager

This one hour online certification program reinforces a parents role in a child or youth’s activities, encouraging positive sport behaviours and providing insight into the various roles other individuals (such as coaches and officials) play.

Calling all Referees!

Posted by Oceanside MHA at Sep 18, 2015 9:06PM PDT

At the last Executive meeting a motion was made and passed to have the association purchase up to 50 referee jerseys and provide them to our officials to defray their costs. The system will work the same as player jerseys, where you (or your parents ) will provide a jersey deposit of $40.00. At the end of the season if the jersey is returned in good condition, the deposit cheque will be returned. If the referee decides to keep the jersey or it is damaged, the deposit cheque will be cashed. The cheque must be dated 01 APRIL 2016. The jerseys must be returned by 31 March 2016.

If you would like to take advantage of this, please let me know so I can get the original shipment started and set up a location for sizing. We will also be giving all new officials an Acme Thunder whistle.

Thank you
