Returning Officials

 

In preparation for the 2026-27 season, the recertification process for all returning officials is the same as last year.  All returning officials are required to complete annual recertification in two (2) Phases:

PHASE ONE (1) - Pre-requisites [both to be completed before Phase Two (2)]:

Step 1: Criminal Record Check (CRC) (required for all officials 18 years or older)

o Check your CRC status within your Spordle account.

o If you require a CRC, complete this online submission process.

Step 2: Register for and complete online recertification course and quiz, including purchase of Participant Assessment Fee (Insurance) if applicable. Any official that is or will NOT be registered for the 2025-26 as a Hockey Canada player or team official MUST purchase the Participant Assessment Fee when registering for this online recertification course. Please review this VIDEO for more information about adding this fee to your registration.
