A current VSC is required for all SHMHA Team officials including but not limited to head coaches, assistant coaches, trainers, managers and at large team officials, on-ice volunteers, skills coaches, third party skills coaches, dressing room supervisors and anyone else who, through their duties may work with children.
Completed Vulnerable Sector Checks are being centralized through Ontario Hockey Federation (OFH) and must be submitted online. Instructions on the VSC, frequently asked questions and how to submit can be found on the OHF’s Vulnerable Sector Checks (VSC) page.
To confirm your VSC status and what is required for completion, please contact Jacquee Leppington ([email protected])
Note: For the 2024/2025 season: a VSC from the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 season will be accepted. This documentation is required to be submitted online through the OHF Screening Submissions Portal. A Declaration for Year 2 and Year 3 is also still required for this process.
If you require a new VSC to be completed, please complete this process as soon as possible as processing times may be delayed.
Once you start the VSC process, you may upload your receipt and complete a declaration to satisfy the process short term. Any individual who submitted a receipt must submit their validated VSC by December 1, 2024, or they will be deemed ineligible.
All VSC must be completed and approved within the OHF portal (HCR profile will be updated to green and show as valid once the VSC is approved) prior to any off or on ice team activity.
