Volunteers
New This Year!!
All volunteers and team managers will submit their USA Hockey confirmation numbers in a brief registration.
VOLUNTEER CERTIFICATION AND TRAINING INSTRUCTIONS
The Sauk Rapids Youth Hockey Association is run by volunteers. Without our volunteers, there is no hockey season. There are multiple ways to get involved within your team and the association. Please reach out to any board member if you are interested in helping out. Some volunteers will need different types of training and certifications before they can begin.
If you are a board member, team manager, or locker room monitor, you must complete the following steps before beginning your position.
Step 1- Register with USA Hockey as a volunteer (free). You will be given a USA Hockey identification number that you will need to complete steps 2 and 3. A new identification number is needed every year.
Step 2- Complete a background screening on the USA Hockey website ($30 fee). You will need your driver's license and USA Hockey identification number on hand. A background screening will be valid for two seasons. It typically will take about a week to process. Remember, you must be cleared before you begin service.
Step 3- Complete SafeSport training. This is also found on the USA Hockey website. Again, be sure to have your USA Hockey identification number on hand. New trainees will need to complete the entire course. A refresher will follow every year after.
Once you have completed all the requirements, click on the link at the top of the page to complete the registration process.
