Clinics

Online officiating clinics for the 2022 – 2023 season are open for registration.

Hockey Manitoba will be offering a hybrid model this season. We will be combining online and in-person teaching to set up our officials for the season ahead. Below we will highlight the clinics being offered for the season as well as their requirements.

* All Level 1 and Level 2 officials will be required to attend an in-person clinic. Level 3 official clinics will be held online. Officials will need to complete the Hockey Canada officiating exam provided during the clinic you attend.

** Level 1 and Level 2 official clinics are in-person with a skating session following the classroom portion.

*** All officials need to be registered to officiate.

**** All officials need to be certified before December 1, 2022.

Please check the Hockey Canada Registry for dates and times in your region.

 

New Officials for the 2022 – 2023 season

This section is for individuals interested in becoming a Hockey Manitoba official.

The first step is completing the Hockey University (HU) course.  You must then attend an in-person clinic and complete the required exam.

Once you have attended an in-person clinic and completed the exam, new officials will be also required to attend an on-ice session.

NEW officials entering Level I (must be 12 years of age or older before December 31, 2022)

NEW/Returning officials entering Level II (must be 15 years of age or older before December 31, 2022)

Please Note: Officials who have attended and completed the online course are allowed to start officiating. If you do not complete the MANDATORY in-person skating session by December 1st, you will not be certified for the season.
