Officials are an integral part of the sport of hockey.
The Canadian Hockey Officiating Program is an important development program within the Canadian Hockey structure. The specific needs of the referee are based primarily on the stream of hockey in which the official is participating. Our program will give you a tremendous level of satisfaction, when you know you have contributed to the game. Officiating gives people an opportunity to enjoy and be involved in an integral part of the game. It gives you the opportunity to learn the game from another perspective, to focus on the task at hand, and to refine your judgement and decision making skills.
