Good Morning Everyone:

 

As the season begins on mass this weekend this is a reminder of the Hockey Canada Dressing Room policy (attached) and the need for the Rule of Two for player supervision in the dressing rooms.

 

Rule of Two

 

To best ensure safety for all participants, all minor hockey programs sanctioned by Hockey Canada and its Members are required to implement the ‘Rule of Two’ for all dressing rooms. The ‘Rule of Two’ requires two trained and screened adults to be present in the dressing room or immediately outside the dressing room with the door propped open to monitor the environment and ensure it is free of any discrimination, harassment, bullying, or other forms of maltreatment. The Rule of Two remains in place when showers are in use.
