A quick reminder about our Code of Conduct

When you registered this season, you agreed to the EHA Code of Conduct. It’s so much more than a form you scroll through at sign-up – it’s a commitment to upholding the values of our Association.

It’s your promise to other players, coaches, umpires, officials, and spectators that you will be respectful, supportive, and enthusiastic while helping to foster the growth of our game.

If you need a refresher, please take a few minutes to read through it again and have these values in mind every time you step onto the grass each Saturday – whatever your role. Together, we can ensure our finals are played in great spirit and enjoyed by all.

Thank you to everyone for your support this season – whether you’ve been playing, cheering, umpiring, or volunteering, you’ve helped make our hockey community thrive. Let’s finish strong and enjoy these last few weeks of games and celebrations on our fields!

See you at the fields
