Police Record Checks
Volunteers need to obtain a Police Records Check (PRC) before they can be on the ice or in the dressing room as a volunteer. We understand that you might be asking why. Because we work closely with kids, our volunteers fall under a category requiring that we take extra care to ensure the safety of our participants.
The type of PRC we need is a "Level 3 - Vulnerable Sector Check".
