Updates from Skate Ontario regarding Rowan’s Law are now in place. The immediate impact for Ontario skating clubs is the requirement under this law to ensure that all skaters under the age of 26, parents (if the skater is under the age of 18 years), coaches, officials and other designated persons have confirmed they have reviewed the required Concussion Awareness Resources and Concussion Codes of Conduct before becoming registered for the ensuing season.
We have updated our website to include all pertinent information regarding these new Ontario policies: https://skatescbc.ca/scbc-concussion-policies/
SCBC is asking that acknowledgement of reviewing this information be provided ASAP. Please complete and sign the following two forms that need to be returned to the office no later than November 15th, 2019.
