Officiating
The officials are the third team on the ice, without whom the game would not happen. The six levels of Hockey Canada’s officiating program take officials from the lowest divisions of minor hockey through the top levels of hockey in Canada, and the international game.

Parents
Being a hockey parent is no easy task. Hockey parents are often called upon to wear many different volunteer hats, some of which result in conflicting roles. A hockey parent may be a coach, evaluator, director or a referee – any of whom is required to make decisions in everyone’s best interest while still being a mom or dad wanting what’s best for his or her own child.

Sledge
Sledge hockey is an innovative team sport that incorporates the same rules and discipline structure as regular ice hockey. Sledge hockey players sit on specially designed sleds, or ‘sledges’, with skate blades under the seat. Two sticks are used to not only pass, stickhandle and shoot the puck, but also to propel and maneuver their sledges.
