In order to request your CRC and VSS free of charge, a personalized letter will be provided by a member of the board to confirm you are a volunteer with the Dieppe Ringette Association. These letters will be prepared and handed off once team rosters and coaching staff has been submitted. Please contact us if you have not received a letter by the end of October.
All information will be kept strictly confidential and will remain valid for a duration of three years. There is no need to renew your CRC and VSS sooner.
Woman on the Bench
Each team must have a certified woman (same level as required for assistant coaches) on the bench during games. If the team staff does not have any woman, the team must at least have a female screened (VSC provided to the association) volunteer that is at least 16 years old and has completed the Safe Sports training by the Coaching Association of Canada.
