The Hockey Canada Safety program is a development initiative of Hokey Canada and is a
volunteer hockey program. The emphasis of this program is on injury prevention and safety through risk
management and education.
The Hockey Canada Safety program improves the game by providing an organized, easy-to-access education
program for hockey safety and injury-prevention volunteers. The program provides participants with
information they need to promote and implement improved safety, risk management and injury-prevention
practices in hockey. Today, Hockey Canada has adopted the safety program as a mandatory program to show its
commitment to improving the safety and enjoyment of the game.
The program is available to any person who is interested in being a safety person on their team. The six-hour
program is a simple approach to safety and injury prevention. If you are interested in becoming the safety
person for your team, contact your local branch for
clinic information.
