The Respect in Sport Program is an online course designed to reinforce the role of parents in a child's sports activities, reinforce positive behaviours in sport, and provide insight into the role coaches, referees and other officials play in the game.

The Edmonton Northstars will be following the directive of Hockey Edmonton and Hockey Alberta which requires each family to have a parent(s) complete the one hour on-line Respect in Sport Parent Program. You will not be able to register your child if you have not completed the Respect in Sport Program.

To complete the program, simply visit the Hockey Edmonton website (www.hockeyedmonton.ca) and click on the Respect in Sport Parent program. You will then be prompted to register on-line for the course. There is a fee ($12 plus GST) to complete the course.
