As one of the Mississauga Hockey League's largest associations, we rely solely on volunteers like you to help our youth learn the great game of hockey. More importantly, minor hockey is a fantastic vehicle for teaching our children valuable life skills. At Erindale, our focus is athlete-centered, meaning that we place a greater emphasis on fun and development than winning.

While the volunteer commitment may seem large in terms of police checks and certifications, they are necessary to ensure that Erindale's children learn the Great Canadian Game in a safe and positive atmosphere. If selected, you will be joining a strong and supportive group of volunteers as well as reaping the rewards of watching children grow and develop. Thank you for putting your name forward. We do appreciate it!

Coaching certification requirements are located on the Mississauga Hockey League Site

New for 2024-25 - OHF Changes for Vulnerable Sector Search:

  • Coaches that did a Vulnerable Sector Search in 2022-2023 or 2023-2024 Season can use this VSS along with a Declaration for the 2024-2025 Season.

  • Coaches that did a CRC in the last two seasons must complete a new VSS. 

  • All documentation must be in PDF form when loading into the OHF system.

  •  “A” and Red Coaches will need to have uploaded their VSS with the OHF or proof of VSS submission to the Police by uploading a receipt and a Criminal Offense Declaration by May 6 – the start of Tryouts for “A” and for the Red Coaches before the Red Tryouts for the 2024-2025 Season.
