THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL, WE WILL NOT HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR USAH NUMBER AND CEP INFORMATION IF YOU DON'T REGISTER WITH HHHA.

4) USA Hockey Background Screening

This must be completed before you can be placed on the team roster. 

Background screens through NCSI under the national program will cost $30 for all domestic screens. A cleared background check is required PRIOR to being added to a roster. Screening is good for two seasons. NCSI will not allow you to complete a new background screen if your previous screen is still valid.

The SafeSport Training and Refresher Training are each valid for twelve (12) months beginning on 4/1/22. Completion certificates must be emailed to registrar@hhha.org

There is a core course followed by three refreshers - only ONE course needed per season. Once you sign in you will be automatically directed to the appropriate course.
