Respect In Sport - Parent Edition
Hockey Calgary requires that all NEW players/families complete the Respect in Sport (RIS) Parent program prior to registering. Returning families who completed the RIS in 2014 or prior will be required to recertify their RIS Parent prior to registering for the 2018/2019 season. There is a nominal charge for the course and can be used in other sports where needed. **Important note – please make sure to select Glenlake as your association (choosing anything other than GLENLAKE will result in delays in the registration process**, to complete the Respect in Sport please use the following link:

If RIS Parent is current and you have older children, you are not required to complete the RIS again. You will have to go into the child management area of the RIS site and add the newest child to your account. Here is a link to help in this step:

RIS Parent and Coach are both transferrable from other sports, ie. Ringette, Lacrosse, Baseball, etc. For your reference, here are instructions for you to port your certification to hockey (RIS from soccer applies to Coach RIS only – parents do not take the course with the Calgary Minor Soccer Association:
For Coaches:
To transfer a certificate from another organization to Hockey Alberta's coach program a person needs to go to https://ha.respectgroupinc.com and choose to register a new user. The first field at the top of the registration page is where they will need to enter their existing certificate number and click the “check” box. Once it has been validated they will just need to complete the registration and the certificate will be ported and updated to the HCR.
