Managers

SWAT Team Managers

The Team Manager is a central figure in creating the flow of communication – not only within the team (players, parents and coaches), but between the team and all support systems such as the Minor Hockey Association, League Managers, other teams, referees, officials, etc.

By taking on the operational aspects of the team, the manager enables the coach to focus on player development and on-ice instruction to provide the players with rewarding hockey experiences.
Important Documents

As the team manager you will be responsible to ensure that a variety of forms are filled out for your team.  As well, there is important information that you will need to be aware of from Hockey Canada, Hockey Alberta and Edmonton Minor Hockey.  For information on the following items outlined below, please click on the link.   It is imperative that each team manager familiarizes him or herself with these forms and procedures.
