1. Parent/Guardian Presence at Games and Practices
An important reminder to families and players: Parents/Guardians need to be present at games and practices if their player has needs that may require the parent or guardian's assistance, such as behavior issues, seizure disorders or other medical needs. The safety and well-being of all MN Special Hockey players and volunteers is of the utmost importance; therefore a parent/guardian must be present in the arena for any player who has the potential for a medical or behavioral incident.
