Ice Hockey is Coming Back

7/3/2020

1 Comment

 
Fellow MIHOA officials.  Ice Hockey is on its way back and we are getting request from leagues to provide officials for games.  Shortly we will be posting games on the MIHOA scheduling web site.  Please check the web site several times per day for new game postings.
 
As we start back up, please be aware of the below.  Also, keep in mind everything is still fluid and any day all the below could change.

  • Game assignments and scheduling will be accomplished by searching for and requesting games on the MIHOA Scheduling web site.  MIHOA VP’s will then assign games.  Games will not be assigned based on availability calendars until further notice.
  • MIHOA will be responsible for officiating the game based on hockey rules and will not be responsible for policing the COVID requirements such as social distancing on the bench or other non-hockey related rules.
  • Be aware of your own personal health issues and take them into consideration when deciding if you should work games.
  • As a MIHOA Independent Contractor you assume all the risk that comes with working games.  MIHOA is not responsible for your health.
  • Make sure you are symptom free when you go to the rink.  You will be screened prior to entering the rink and if do not pass the screening you will be sent home and could be subject to the MIHOA Policies and Procedures for games at the discretion of the MIHOA VP's or Board of Directors.
  • Officials must adhere to the Federal, State or Local governments COVID requirements and guidelines both on and off the ice which includes such things as:
  • Maintaining social distancing in dressing and locker rooms
  • Wearing face coverings when not on the ice
  • Keeping physical contact with others to a minimum both on and off the ice
 
At the rink:
  • Identify yourself as the referee for the game.
  • Most rinks will allow you in the building around 15 minutes before the start of the game
  • Most rinks will require you to wear a face covering to enter the building.  Make sure you have a face covering. 
  • You will be screened prior to being allowed in the building.
  • You should arrive at the rink dressed as much as possible.  Dressing or locker rooms may or may not be available.  Each rink will have different rules. 

​As of 6/29/2020, below are the highlights of the local governments game requirements.  Please visit the appropriate government web site for further information on game requirements.
 
St. Louis County
  • Youth games are allowed.  Officiating Youth games requires you to wear face covering on the ice.  If you are not comfortable with blowing your whistle through the face covering you have the option to buy an electronic whistle. 
  • Adult games are NOT allowed.
 
Illinois
  • Youth games are allowed. 
  • Adult games are allowed.
 
St. Charles County
  • Youth games are allowed. 
  • Adult games are allowed.

See the Seminar page for a message from Sjoukje Brown Central District Referee-in-Chief about registration
Background checks and screening will now be done on the USA Hockey web site. www.usahockey.com/backgroundscreen
