This program is mandated by Hockey Alberta. All players must have an active Shift Forward - Parent Certificate before they can access the registration system.

Important Update - As of April 15th, Hockey Canada has replaced the Respect in Sport - Parent program with their internal program, Shift Forward. For detailed information on this transition, please visit the Hockey Alberta website.

NOTE: The Shift Forward - Coach certificate is not equivalent and cannot be used to fulfill the Parent requirement.
