Team Staff Requirements
RESPECT IN SPORT
Mandatory for all Teams and Registered Staff (Coaches, Managers)
Sport Manitoba has instituted a new program called Respect in Sport. This program is compulsory for all coaches in all sports in the province of Manitoba. By December of 2007 all coaches will have to complete the online course in order to continue coaching. After this date coaches will not be allowed behind the bench until the course has been completed.
The course is three hours in length, divided into six one-half hour modules. It can be completed at the coach’s leisure, in its entirety or in segments at their own pace. The course is available in both English and French and is fee of charge to all coaches.
Course Access Instructions
Please ensure you have speakers or a headset attached to your computer and they are turned on.

CRIMINAL RECORD CHECKS (CPIC/EPIC)
All team staff must have their EPIC if they have a player under the age of 18 on their roster.
If any team calls up any youth players, one team staff must have their EPIC and must be present at the game the youth player is playing in.
If either of these apply to your team. Copies of all your team staff EPICs must be sent to the league and when registering as a team staff on RAMP, the EPIC information must be filled out.
Please click on the link to get more information on how and where to apply. If you decide to file by EPIC please use the Manitoba Soccer Association as your agency.
