3.  MANDATORY RESPECT IN SPORT PARENT COURSE

• The Respect in Sport Parent Course is a MANDATORY online certification program that MUST BE COMPLETED BY AT LEAST ONE PARENT or guardian of each player registered in minor hockey in Alberta.
• It is IMPORTANT TO NOTE that this course must be taken prior to any on-ice activities.  This includes the first evaluation skate OR the free "Learn to Skate" sessions in September hosted by the Hawks Athletic Club for our U7 Discovery and U7 Jr. Timbits players.
• If a player shows up for an evaluation skate with the mandatory Respect in  Sport Parent course still outstanding on the player's Hockey Canada Registry profile, the player will not be allowed on the ice and there will not be a "make-up" evaluation date and time set for this player.
• Registrations are NOT complete until the Respect in Sport Parent Course is completed.
• The Respect in Sport Parent course can be found at https://hockeyalbertaparents.respectgroupinc.com. 
• If you need extra help completing the course, more detailed information on how to log into and complete the course can be found on the Hawks website at www.hawksathletics.ca.
• If you have already completed the course for a child (within the past 4 years) and are registering a "new" child (player), you do not have to do the course again.  Please log into your Respect in Sport Parent account and simply follow the instructions to "ADD A CHILD".
• The cost of the course is $12.60 ($12.00+$0.60 GST) and is required to be paid online by the parent.  Be advised that only ONE PARENT is required to do the course.
• Since the Respect in Sport Parent course expires after 4 years and must be renewed, it is highly recommended to check if your RIS Parent Certification is still valid by visiting the Respect in Sport Parent website at https://hockeyalbertaparent.respectgroupinc.com.
• IMPORTANT NOTE TO COACHES:  THE RESPECT IN SPORT ACTIVITY LEADER COURSE is different than the RESPECT IN SPORT PARENT COURSE.  You must complate the Respect in Sport Activity Leader course if you plan to coach.
