OMHA has mandated that one parent take the 'Respect in Sport (RIS) Parent Course' If Players do not have a parent who has the Respect Certification they will not be eligible to play. You can also find this clinic under the Registration tab

6. WHAT IF I HAVE A CHILD ALREADY IN HOCKEY AND I NEED TO ENROL ANOTHER, DO I HAVE TO TAKE RIS PARENT COURSE AGAIN?
No, if you already have a child enrolled in hockey with OMHA, you do not complete the RIS Course again. Simply access your Spordle account and 'add member' to your profile. Do no open/create another profile. If you do, you risk being required to complete the Respect in Sport Parent Course again.

7.  IF I AM MOVING TO THE AREA, HOW DO I REGISTER?
Whether your intention is to play in the local league system or Rep program, you will need to complete and submit a player transfer form, in order for your player to be rostered to a team. Access details and Transfer form here 'Moved to Huntsville'

8. AS A PARENT, WILL I RECEIVE EMAILS FROM THE ASSOCIATION RELATING TO SCHEDULED ICE TIMES OR INFORMATION ON MY HOCKEY TEAM?
You may receive emails from your teams manager and/or convener. No emails from the association will be sent to players or parents. It's the responsibility of the player and parent to check the website regularly for any schedule changes or team information.

9. MY CHILD IS ENROLLED IN HOCKEY AND ANOTHER SPORT, THERE IS A CONFLICT WITH SCHEDULES. IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO?
In most cases no. Once final enrollment numbers are in, sufficient ice needs to be secured and scheduled covering multiple age groups/divisions. We can't guarantee each year what those ice times/schedules will look like. It is the player/parents responsibility to coordinate hockey and other sports schedules.
