Minor Hockey Depends on You
Minor hockey is dependent upon relationships with local facilities to ensure that we can provide successful programming throughout the season. We must ensure that we always respect facilities whether at home or at another venue. This includes being respectful of venue Staff, property (i.e. change rooms, lobbies, etc.), other facility users, etc. Furthermore, this includes playing appropriate music in change rooms, during warmups and during on-ice functions.

All teams are required to abide by the rules and regulations provided by facilities/arenas and respecting the guidelines regarding arrival times and use of public areas within the facility.

ALLIANCE Hockey has received concerns from facilities regarding teams arriving 1.5–2 hours prior to scheduled ice time(s).  In most cases, change rooms are not available this early as they are occupied by other user groups/teams.  Further concerns then develop with the hazard of equipment bags left in public spaces/lobbies, hallways, outside change room doors, warmups in unauthorized spaces, etc. Along with the associated safety concerns, this prevents Facility Staff from easily accessing and cleaning spaces.

Minor hockey programs and participants are under continued scrutiny of general observers, facility operations and live streaming cameras. ALLIANCE Hockey has an expectation of members and participants to always conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the values of ALLIANCE Hockey which include fairness, integrity, and mutual respect.

ALLIANCE Hockey is committed to placing the players and the game in the forefront in an environment that is fun, safe, and inclusive and will not tolerate any contradicting behaviour(s).

ALLIANCE Hockey thanks all teams for being mindful of facility/arena guidelines especially regarding arrival times, warm up areas and playing appropriate music and ensuring that public spaces are safe and accessible for all users.

We are looking forward to a great finish to the season and wish everyone the best of luck in their respective competitions.
