Suspension Reporting - CARHA

Why CARHA needs suspensions to be reported:

   It is important that CARHA Hockey is aware of all suspensions within their network in order to ensure that all participants are eligible to participate in CARHA Hockey games. The main reasons relate to continuity of information, restricting liability and finally as a support mechanism to the leagues.
   The large quantity of adult recreational hockey opportunities presents the possibility for an ineligible player in one league to choose a different league to participate.  It may occur that communication between the leagues does not occur and as such a league may unwittingly allow a player to register and participate while he is ineligible by CARHA Hockey.
   CARHA Hockey does not want to be exposed to any possible liability in the event that subsequent actions result from an ineligible player participating while he/she is deemed as suspended.  It is to restore a level of accountability for the respective league issuing the suspension. Suspensions imposed by leagues are made with the overall best interests of the league in mind and as such it provides for the National body to support and strengthen the decisions of its members.


With CARHA Hockey being aware of such disciplinary action, this will help us continue to keep the game safe!
