Volunteer Overview

We Need Our Volunteers!

Volunteers are greatly needed to make a hockey association run, and without volunteers contributing many hours, CCHA could simply not exist. We appreciate and can’t thank the volunteers enough for the work that they do to help make all of our children's hockey experiences positive and enjoyable ones and make the CCHA program successful!

There are several ways to fulfill your hours by volunteering for shifts at one of our main events this season!

Keep an eye out for shifts at the following events coming up:

Tryouts - Sept/Oct
Brick City Tournament - Thanksgiving Weekend
Mite Jamboree - Early-Mid March

Otherwise, you can volunteer throughout the season for these ongoing opportunities:

Concessions - you aren't ever alone and it's an easy way to get those hours in because they have shifts all season long.
- (Also! If you really love concessions - we need trainers and leads and you can get paid to work those shifts, let us know if you want more information.)
Coaching - you can fulfill your entire family commitment of volunteer hours through coaching.
- (You must complete all current coaching requirements to get credit.)
Team Volunteers - There are several positions that your child's team needs to make their season run smoothly! We need Team Managers, Team Treasurer/Scrimmage Managers, & Team Videographers.
- This fulfills your entire family commitment of volunteer hours. You must complete all registration requirements to get credit.

Want to get even more involved? Become a Board Member or key volunteer, see below for those role descriptions.

How To Sign Up For A Shift

Click on the shift in the lists below this text OR go to DIBS.
Select the "Session" that you would like to view shifts that are available.

Available volunteer shifts can be found by looking at the LIST VIEW or the CALENDAR view.

Clicking on an item will give you a description as to what the volunteer shift entails (i.e, Clock, Concessions, etc), as well as the number of hours you will be credited once the shift has been completed.

Shifts will be posted as either Volunteer Credit or Ice Credit.

Make sure you are aware of the type of shift you are signing up for, as this is not something that can be changed after the fact.

You can also use the DIBS tab to view your scheduled shifts and to track your volunteer hours.

We reserve the right to cancel, alter, re-assign duties as needed in regards to volunteer shifts other than concessions. We will do our best to communicate those changes, but it is your responsibility to be checking your email and the details of your shifts.

NOTE: YOU CANNOT SIGN UP FOR TRYOUT SHIFTS AT THE LEVEL YOU HAVE A PLAYER

(i.e., if you have a Peewee, you cannot sign up for any shifts designated "Peewee tryouts".)

HOW TO CANCEL YOUR VOLUNTEER SHIFT

At any time you have the right to cancel your shift by doing so in your sportsengine DIBS account. Go into your account and click into the shift - you will see the option to cancel.

On each volunteer shift there is a non-cancellation window that will vary depending on the DIB item itself, during this time cancellation is not guaranteed.

If you are within the non-cancellation window, you cannot simply cancel your shift. You can:

Work Your Assigned Shift
Find someone to fill in your spot.
Take the "no show" fine.

Simply requesting a cancellation during this non cancellation window DOES NOT release you from that shift.

If you made a mistake or have an emergency, you need to contact Kelly Olson - volunteer.coordinator@cchockey.org immediately regarding your shift.

There is NO requirement for Ice Credit shifts- please disregard the 1 hour requirement stated on the Ice Credit Dibs Session. This is only used for tracking purposes.
