PrintNew to GMHA?
Are you and your family new to Guelph Minor Hockey?
This page will give you the best direction we can to ensure you are setup for the upcoming season.

You will need to know your current status as it stands with Hockey Canada to following along in the appropriate category:

My child has never registered with a Hockey Canada program before.

If your child has not participated within a Hockey Canada Sanctioned Program, then you will need to follow the steps below to ensure you can register with Guelph Minor Hockey for the upcoming season.

Step 1: You must complete the Respect in Sport - Parent Course. It is important that you put Guelph as your Minor Hockey Association OR you will not be able to register.

Please follow the Respect in Sport - Parent Course Guidelines to ensure you complete this process properly.

Step 2: Head on over to the GMHA Registration Page and follow along the steps to complete your registration.

My child has a sibling that I have completed the Respect in Sport - Parent Course for OR I already completed this course.

If your child has a sibling and you believe you have completed this course previously for that sibling, then please review the Respect in Sport - Parent Course Guidelines and follow the steps to add your other child to your Respect in Sport profile.

If you feel you have completed this course already, and have your certificate, please email Bryan Smith: [email protected] with that information. There may be a duplicate profile and we will need to send this to OMHA to get fixed.
