Coach Selection
Convenors will collect coaching interest and assign coaches wherever possible. In 2025/26, the aim is to balance coaching assignments between associations. Each coach's registration, accreditation review, and discipline will remain with their current association.
In cases where there are multiple applications or potential disputes, we will establish a Coaching & Development (C&D) committee to review and make recommendations to the impacted convenors and/or the merge committee.  Convenors will provide coaching assignments to the C&D committee for review prior to making assignments.
The C&D committee will be have two members from each association, and an additional member from each to focus on goalie development.
 
Additional questions can be directed to the Coaching Co-ordinator, Louis Rozza at coaching@oemha.ca
 
RETURNING COACHES:   You will be asked in the next step to recover your access code from the system.  If the system says it can't find you, try again using Jan 1, 1920 as your date of birth.  If it still can't find you, give up and register as a new coach.
