Hi Everyone,
Here are some updates and information I would like to share on behalf of some of our executive members.
Jersey Deposit Deadline
First of all, a quick thank you to all the Coaches and Team Managers (TMs) for helping with jersey deposits and distribution this season. You have all been a big part of this season’s jersey distribution and deposit collection; it would not have been possible without your help.
As there are no games on Saturday, Nov. 1st, the deposit deadline for Mini-Mites, Mites, Jr. Squirt, and Sr. Squirt will be extended to Nov. 8th.
- Nov. 2nd:Â Rowan will be at Burnett from 10:00am – 4:30pm to collect remaining team deposits
- Nov. 8th: Rowan will be at Burnett from 9:00am – 7:30pm to collect remaining team deposits
Jersey Deposit Instructions:
- The deposit amount is $50, paid by either cash or cheque.
- Cheques can be made out to RICHMOND COSOM FLOOR HOCKEY ASSOCIATION. Be sure to write player names on cheques.
- Cash should be placed in a Ziplock or envelope labeled with the player’s first and last name.
- Give your deposit to your Team Manager. Team Managers will then place all their team’s deposits in a separate bag and give it to Assistant Equipment Manager, Rowan, for collection.
- You do not need a deposit if you are using a custom jersey
- At season end when jerseys are returned in good, undamaged condition, cash will be returned and cheques will be shredded.
- Coaches, please make note of any number change between players
Team Managers can find Rowan near the ref box. If he is unavailable, please ask for an executive and they will collect your deposit on his behalf.
After the deadline has passed, any player who has not made their deposit will not be allowed to play until it has been made. If for any reason a player is unable to make a deposit please reach out, especially if due to a financial hardship.
As always, if you have any questions, please reach out to Rowan at assistantequiptment@rcfha.org
Roughing/Sportsmanship Reminder:
Please be reminded that RCFHA is a non-contact league and any excessive body contact and/or any prolonged contact will be called a minor roughing penalty.
Also, RCFHA has a zero tolerance level for unsportsmanlike behaviour from players, coaches, and spectators. The Executive have received comments from Parents, Coaches and Players about inappropriate comments to each other (eg. trash talking on the floor). The referees have been instructed to watch for and penalize any and all comments on the floor, benches, etc. It is important for coaches to talk to their teams and parents talk to their children about what players may think of as fun banter may not always be received as it is intended.
If you have any questions or concerns please email Wesley at officials@rcfha.org
