VOLUNTEER RCMP VULNERABLE SECTOR CHECKS (VSC) / SAFE SPORT TRAINING / RAMP COACHING REGISTRATION
It is mandatory that all persons involved with our SBA youth (including Head Coaches, Assistant Coaches, Team Managers if they work with the Kids); all acquire Criminal/Vulnerable check. If you are volunteering to help the team but will NOT be directly working with the kids alone, a check is not required. A check is required for each and every season (they last one year), with the date covering from the start to the completion of the season - September (EYBA) / October (HL) to early March.
NOTE: If you have had a check completed in another sport/activity that will last through our season (through March, 2026), that will be acceptable.
NEW for the 2025-26 SEASON: When you register as a Coach on RAMP, you will check off the option to get RAMP to complete the Criminal Record check. The system will take you to a 'Triton' form to fill out. Once that portion is completed, you will then be sent an email in which you will have limited time to answer about 3-5 more questions. You will receive the completed CRC after that and it will be automatically uploaded onto your profile on RAMP.
Also required is Coaches to take the Safe Sport Training course: follow instructions HERE. Safe Sport training is requirement to be completed every 2nd year.
