Locker Room Monitor Responsibilities:  Please arrive 45 minutes prior to games and 30 minutes prior to practices.  You must stay in the locker room until the last players leave the locker room.

• Ideally, the designated locker room should not be opened until a locker room monitor can accompany any players who have arrived.
• If a single player is present, the locker room should be monitored by at least two adults until additional players arrive.
• If there is only one adult present, whether a coach or volunteer parent, they should wait for multiple players to arrive before allowing access to the locker room.
• The same strategies should be applied after practice with a monitor staying until the last player leaves, and at no time should one adult be alone in the locker room with one player.

ANNUAL PARENT CHECKLIST (REQUIRED)

For all parents/volunteers assigned as locker room monitors this process must be completed even if you buyout of association volunteer hours, as the team requires volunteer hours as well.

STEP 1: All parents/volunteers must register with USA Hockey; there is no cost if not a player/coach. 

Select the RED REGISTER button, then manager/volunteer and proceed with remaining prompts. 
Register with USA Hockey as a Manager/Volunteer

STEP 2:  Complete the annual SafeSport training; there is no cost. 

If you complete your USAH registration and immediately try to enter that number into the above link, the two systems may not have had sufficient time to communicate/update. You may need to wait until the next business day before the update occurs. OYHA does not control this process; this is a communication between USA Hockey & US Center for SafeSport.

STEP 3: Register and complete the background check. Background checks are valid for 2 seasons and the system will not let you proceed if there is a valid background check on file. 

PLEASE NOTE: If you receive the following message, a new background check is not required this season.

You are not eligible to submit a screen at this time. Please see www.usahockey.com/backgroundscreen for questions. Please note, background screens are valid for two seasons. If you received a cleared screen in the 20-21 season, you will not be able to submit a new screen until the 22-23 season.
