For coaches who need to complete workbooks to obtain certification:  DO NOT submit a workbook which has been photocopied (for copyright reasons); an original workbook must be completed (although you are encouraged to photocopy your completed workbook for your records before submitting the original for evaluation).

All Coaches are required to obtain a Criminal Record Check from your local RCMP detachment.  You must go to the detachment in person to request one (bring ID).  Please give to Liz.
