Behaviour Policy:
CWMHA is committed to providing an environment in which all individuals are treated with respect. Members and participants of CWMHA shall conduct themselves at all times in a manner consistent with the values of the CWMHA which include fairness, integrity and mutual respect. Information in regards to Code of Conduct can be found in the CWMHA Rules of Operation. Please also note the CWMHA Social Networking Policy.
Background Checks:
A new season is upon us and all volunteers working with children must have a police check completed and filed with the association. As a reminder, OMHA policy requires all Team Officials, including Coaches, Assistant Coaches, Trainers and Managers to provide a Criminal Background Check as a condition of volunteering to work with children.While some consider this to be a technicality, CWMHA fully supports the OMHA’s Policy on Criminal Record Checks, as this important requirement helps to provide a safe and secure environment for CWMHA families and players.
Vulnerable Sector Checks (Ontario Provincial Police) are required to be completed when a volunteer starts and every four years hence forth. Declarations are submitted annually. These forms are not available on-line, but are available by contacting CWMHA Risk Management Director.
Please include 2 pieces of Identification with 1 being a photo, along with your "Police Check" forms.
Examples: Birth Certificate, Passport, Hunting Licence, Driver's Licence.
**No Health Cards.
