About Volunteering
Volunteers Are Vital To Our Success
The success of the WMHA depends on you, the volunteer. Our success is through the hard work and dedication of those who give of their time to work with our players. We have many volunteer opportunities available and encourage each family to take up a volunteer role.
- Rostered team officials: coach, assistant coach, safety, team manager
- WMHA board
And if you can't find the time to make that sort of extra commitment, please do what you can to help with team duties throughout the season, with everything from 50-50 draws to operating the score clock.
Each team REQUIRES a Head Coach, 1-2 Assistant Coaches, Manager and a Hockey Canada Safety Person, along with On-Ice Helpers during practices . Each position needs to have qualifications to help with the team.
Job Descriptions for each position:
