All coaches and team level volunteers, who interact with our players, must submit a criminal record check. These checks are valid for 3 years.

** AMHA removes all Team Officials from teams until the Criminal Record Check is complete. Results are sent directly to the assocation.

Process:

Application can be completed online and takes approximately 5-10 minutes. Once completed, you must forward the SERVICE ID number and receipt to Rhonda Bencze at amha@abbotsfordminorhockey.ca to advise you have applied.

Fingerprint Process:

If you receive a letter from the ministry advising fingerprints are required, you MUST let the association know by advising our registrar (Rhonda). You have 30 days from the date you receive the letter to have your fingerprints processed. After 30 days, your file will be closed and you will have to reapply.

• For those that reside within Abbotsford, fingerprints are completed at the Abbotsford Police Dept. You will require a letter from our Registrar. The fee is $27, which is refundable by AMHA. Note: RCMP will not fingerprint residents of Abbotsford
• For those that reside in an area that is policed by the RCMP, please go to your local RCMP detachment or local authority.

CRC Obtained for Other Organizations:

AMHA does accept Criminal Record Checks via the online system, however they must be current within one year. Please utilize the online system to share with AMHA.
