Referee camps and clinics are held throughout the province. Membership in the SHA entitles teams to the use of registered referees. – Certified Coaching Clinics are provided for members. Instructions are given by qualified instructors. – Rules and Regulations governing hockey are standard across Canada. As a member of the SHA you have an opportunity to recommend rule changes which are then reviewed by the National body. – The SHA acts as an Appeal Board to which any member, team or player may appeal any disciplinary measure or other matter rendered against him/her. – The SHA issues permits for tournaments and exhibition games in order to ensure that participating teams meet age and other registration requirements. – All players and officials of member teams are required to register in the Hockey Canada Registry as outlined by the appropriate section of these By–laws and Regulations.
