U8 and U9 MD - Coaching Applications for the 2024-25 Season NOW OPEN!
Waterloo Minor Hockey is now accepting coaching applications for our U8 and U9MD Teams for the 2024-25 Season.
We will be accepting applications until April 5, 2024.
PLEASE NOTE: These tryouts will take place in the Fall.
The key to team success is coaching. We look for experienced coaches that are capable of managing all facets of a busy hockey team and season, the commitment is extensive. The WMHA Rep Committee and Board will make the decisions regarding the coaching positions. The Rep Committee employs a consensus-building approach to the selection process (please refer to the Coach Selection page in REP Manual). Voting takes place as necessary.
Applicants are asked to complete the online form available at the link below. Additional emails to committee members are strongly discouraged. The application has a number of detailed questions and you are encouraged to thoughtfully answer each item.
Selecting coaches is a time-consuming endeavor with the committee spending as much time as necessary to find the most qualified and capable individual for a particular team.
All members of a Coaching Staff (Head Coach, Assistant Coach, Trainer, and Manager) must ultimately be approved by the WMHA Board of Directors.
Coach Certification Requirements (unique to U9 and below):
Coaches (both Head Coach and Assistant Coaches) MUST obtain a Coach 1 - Introduction to Coach qualification. As per Hockey Canada, NO other qualifications will be accepted.
All Coaches require their Respect-In-Sport, Gender Identity, as well as a current Police Check.
Thank you in advance for your interest. Please click HERE to complete the application.
NOT ALL APPLICANTS WILL BE CONTACTED FOR AN INTERVIEW
