WE WANT YOU!
Want to give back to the game you love? Care about
the integrity of the game? Become an ice hockey official!
The Minnesota Hockey Officials Association (MHOA)
encourages individuals who are passionate about
providing a great hockey experience to youth players
to get and stay involved as an official. MHOA works with
the USA Hockey Officiating Program to train hockey
officials, promote uniformity of rules interpretation and
maintain the highest standards of officiating across
the state.
Interested in becoming an official? Find out more at
minnesotahockey.org/new-official.
The USA Hockey Coach Education Program (CEP) will take on a new look for the 2020-21 season as Level 1-4
coaching certification clinics will be conducted virtually until it is deemed safe to host large group gatherings. Coaches
seeking Level 1-3 certification may request a special temporary card that will provide a one-year certification or extension
of their previous certification.
All coaches must still complete the appropriate age-specific training modules for their age group. Age modules must be
completed before taking the ice or being placed on a team roster. For more information on certification requirements or
coaching resources, visit minnesotahockey.org/coaches.
