Becoming a Team Manager

The Team Manager is a central figure in creating the flow of communication within the team (players, parents and coaches), and also between the team and all support systems such as the Minor Hockey Association (VMHA), Division Managers, League Managers, other teams, referees, officials, etc. Ultimately, the manager is responsible for ensuring all the off-ice tasks are completed. This does not mean that the manager has to do it all; he or she needs to make sure that things get done via delegation. This is a pretty big job so set yourself up a posse. Every parent on your team must volunteer for something. 

 

Certification requirements of a Team Manager:
All qualifications must be completed prior to the start of the season - please submit your receipts and completion certificates to registrar@vmha.com for reimbursement.  Reimburses are done once all the requirements have been completed and you have been rostered to a team.

Special Event Sanction

  1. To request coverage for such events, a Special Event Sanction Request Form should be submitted to the BC Hockey office at least 7-10 business days prior to the start of the planned event.
  2. A separate Special Event Sanction Request Form should be submitted for each different activity. However, if the same activity will occur multiple times, such as dryland training, one request can be submitted for all the dates that activity will occur.
  3. The form must be completed in full.
  4. For dates, it is acceptable to use a span or list of dates.
  5. Please include a detailed description. Listing a generic description such as “dryland training” is insufficient and the form will be returned with a request to expand on the activities.
  6. All Sanction Requests will be returned by BC Hockey regardless of whether they are approved or denied. Processed Sanction Requests will be returned via email to the VMHA President.
