2.  Registration Requirements for the 2022-23 Season

All registrations must be completed in order to participate in your first practice.  MSH has followed up with all players and volunteers who haven't completed the registration steps, including background check and Safesport.  MSH will follow up with players and volunteers again next week who still have not completed all registration steps.  

Players and volunteers will NOT be allowed to participate until all registration requirements are completed! 

You are not allowed on the ice or on the bench if your name is not on your team roster page.  

Player registration:  https://www.mnspecialhockey.org/playerregistration

Volunteer registration:  https://www.mnspecialhockey.org/coachesapply

3.  Safesport/Background Check Information

For those 18 and older completing the background check, you can get reimbursed for the background check fee.  Please forward your receipt with your name and mailing address to Holly Tchida at holly.tchida@mnspecialhockey.org for reimbursement.

Safesport no longer automatically shows the course completion certificate.  Your completed Safesport status will be reported to USA Hockey within 24 hours of completing the course.  If you have questions on whether your completed course went through and your requirements are fulfilled, please email USA Hockey to check your status at:  memberservices@usahockey.org.  Please include your full name and your current USA Hockey confirmation number in your email.
