WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO COMPLETE PRIOR TO BEGINNING THE REGISTRATION PROCESS

All below documents are also available during the registration process, but it will be much easier if you complete ahead of time.  All registrants must have created a Spordle account ahead of registering in order to obtain your Hockey Canada ID#.

RETURNING PLAYERS:

1. Access your Spordle Account and find your players' Hockey Canada ID#. Update your address and contact information if needed. Make sure all required certifications (such as Respect in Sport, Coaching Certifications, etc.) are still valid. Renew them if necessary. You need a valid Respect in Sport - Parent certificate number for registration.
2. Complete the Medical Information Form (one form per participant).
3. Begin the registration process by selecting one of the registration options below.

NEW TO HOCKEY PLAYERS 

1. Obtain a certificate number proving completion of the Respect in Sport - Parent Program.  If you have already completed this program for an older sibling and your certification is still valid, move to the next step.
2. Create a Hockey Canada Spordle Account (note: you do not register your player through Spordle).
3. Link your participating member(s) and obtain their Hockey Canada ID#(s).
4. If your player is not coming up when attempting to link your player, it's possible that your player was not correctly created and linked to your profile when completing Respect in Sport.  If you believe this may be the case, contact the Respect In Sport help line at 1-866-956-9791.
5. Gather proof of residency documents showing the name of the primary parent and residential address within our boundary zone.  Document should be recently dated.
6. Prepare age verification documents (birth certificate or passport) for uploading during the registration process.
7. Complete the Medical Information Form (one form per participant).
8. Begin the registration process by selecting one of the registration options below.

   • Ensure that you include admin@spmha.ab.ca as email address for the "Minor Hockey Association Submission" field.
2. If the player is looking to play in Sherwood Park without parents living within the boundaries, complete the Hockey Alberta Player Movement Form.
