VANCOUVER ISLAND AMATEUR HOCKEY ASSOCIATION HANDBOOK 2019-2020 CONSTITUTION BY-LAWS REGULATIONS 2019-2020 VIAHA Handbook Vancouver Island Amateur Hockey Association 2301 – Suite E McCullough Road Nanaimo, BC V9S 4M9 Phone #: 250-751-8811 Fax#: 250-751-8812 www.viaha.org MISSION STATEMENT To promote minor hockey in partnership with member associations and leagues stressing fun, respect, sportsmanship, fair competition, development, and safety for minor hockey players of all skill levels. 2019-2020 VIAHA Handbook PRESIDENT'S WELCOME On behalf of VIAHA, welcome to the 2019-2020 Hockey season. Minor Hockey, as most understand, is a team game and it is expected that everyone that wishes to participate take the time to become familiar with the various rules, regulations, policies and bylaws. VIAHA is a not-for-profit society that is over seen by 17 member minor hockey associations. By working together towards common goals, all will have a better chance to succeed. While a member MHA operates their own association, they must also follow the agreements that collectively the 17 MHAs make, even if their own MHA feels they want to do things differently. All member associations are required to participate in leagues administrated by VIAHA and as such, everyone is obligated to adhere to the democratic decisions made by the whole. Many take for granted the 1,000s of volunteers to administer minor hockey on the island with volunteer hours in the 10s of thousands of hours annually. When administrators refuse to learn the rules and parents that expect far too much cause issues it adds to the volunteer hours and in many cases causes volunteers to quit out of frustration. We wish everyone a year that is fun and enjoyable as we watch our children develop their hockey skills. Let us try to understand where others are coming from and do everything possible to put programming together that our players will enjoy and want to return to. Let us also remember that in our game officials are integral and parents, spectators and fans need to keep their negative comments to themselves or they may be asked to vacate the arena. Our children deserve nothing less than all of our cooperation and working together, the responsibility of administering this great game that has been entrusted to us and we should feel privileged to be doing something for our children. ENJOY YOUR SEASON!

  • Bchockey Handbook
    Handbook 2020-2021 CONSTITUTION, DIRECTORY, BYLAWS, REGULATIONS, AWARDS AND HISTORY As amended to September 19, 2020 BC Hockey Handbook 2020-2021 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD I want to acknowledge we are on the unceded and traditional territories of many Indigenous people throughout BC and Yukon. BC Hockey honours the traditional lands and homelands of all Indigenous peoples and communities across Canada, including First Nations, Inuit and Métis I’d also like to recognize all BC Hockey’s life members and thank them for their tireless dedication to all who play our great game. In the Spring of 2020, we were forced to pause hockey because of the COVID-19 Chair of the Board pandemic. At the same time the BC Bill Greene Hockey Board of Directors recognized there was a need for a significant reset and change in the operation of BC Hockey moving into the future. This change meant a complete re-evaluating of our current practices, with the common goal of improving our organization. From the information you provided to the Board of Directors we began rebuilding our organization from the ground up. Much work has been done and we still have more work to do. The Board has reached out to many stakeholders that included Minor Hockey Associations, Builders, and Life Members to help guide us into what we refer to as the “New BC Hockey”. COVID-19 forced changes to all aspects of life and hockey was no exception. Never in the history of our organization have we been forced to deal with a pandemic.
