Managers
The manager is the main communication link between the Association and our members. Therefore, it is the manager’s responsibility to:
- circulate any communications from the Association, and
- ensure parents/adult players know how to access the team information both on our website and on the SportsHeadz mobile app.
Managers must:
- Ensure all league rules, regulations and policies are adhered to for the league in which your team is playing.
- Maintain a list of parent, player and staff contact information.
- Ensure all participants, including all parents, players, Team Staff and On-Ice Helpers, review the OWHA Rowan’s Law Concussion Awareness Resource and Code of Conduct. This is a legal requirement. The Rowan’s Law information can be found on our website.
- Be aware of any players where the parent has indicated at registration that they do not want the player’s picture and name used on the website or in the newspaper. The Registrar will provide this information to you.
- Maintain and update the Team page on our website. This task can be assigned to or shared with a parent for the season.
- Create, maintain and communicate a Dressing Room Supervision schedule for all games, practices and any other situations where the Dressing Room will be used by the players. See the Dressing Room Policy section for further details.
- Create and communicate a plan (and schedule, if appropriate) for timekeeping at home games.
- Ensure gamesheets are accurate and completed on a timely basis:
- Report game results promptly according to league rules and regulations.
- Before the game – ensure all players and Team Staff are entered correctly including any pick-up players, enter curfew information, ensure both teams’ Head Coach or Manager have signed the gamesheet.
- After the game - ensure all game details are entered by the end of the game and the gamesheet is signed by the referees.
- Report game results on the Woolwich Wild website promptly.
- Manage team budget and finances. A team bank account with dual signing authority is required for all rep teams, and any local league team with a sponsor who donates money directly to the team.
- (Optional) Submit weekly updates of each game to the local newspaper. This task can be assigned to a parent to perform for the season.
