In lieu of other fundraising initiatives (such as selling items), SHMHA endeavors to host several tournaments throughout the course of the season. Funds raised from these tournaments help keep our registration fees down from season to season. The participation of all families is a major contributor to that success.
Volunteer Commitment
SHMHA hosts 4 very successful tournaments each season and the participation of all families is a major contributor to that success. These tournaments allow us to help fund our programming without any additional fundraising throughout the season.
Details on how to sign up can be found on the Volunteer Sign Up and Job Description page.
Volunteer Requirements
- Participatory hours are for the benefit of the players within South Huron Minor Hockey.
- A bond cheque in the amount of $500 and dated February 1st of each season will be required for each registered player (U7 and above) unless the opt out option has been selected at registration. These cheques will be collected by team managers and submitted at the beginning of the season.
- Cheques will NOT be cashed unless hours are not completed.
- One shift will need to be completed for every player (U7 and above) registered within SHMHA. We will be maintaining the structure from the past several seasons.
Volunteer Opt-Out
We will be offering the option to opt out of a volunteer shift for a $200 fee (per participant). Families with multiple children can make this selection individually for each player (for example - 2 kids - 1 opt out at $200, plus 1 shift for the other).
This option will only be available to be selected prior to the start of the season and payment must be made in full by August 1, 2024 with registration.
Team Specific Volunteer Requirements
Each team will also be responsible for the following throughout the season (which are not included in your volunteer requirements):
- Time keeping for all home games
- Score keepers for all home games
- Sweater washing for entire season
**The person who is working must be 18 years or older with the exception of some timekeeper positions which may be completed by U18 level registered players**
