Background Screening Requirements

USPHL adopted a background screening policy to reduce the risk of players becoming victim to sexual or physical abuse. To carry out this policy, coaches, referees, board members, team managers, locker room monitors, and officers of USPHL and its affiliates are required to consent to a background check every other year.  The screening policies and procedures conform to mandates established by USA Hockey as a part of its SafeSport Policy.

USPHL is committed to not only continue the success of this policy, but to make the hockey community and the public at-large more aware that this organization, because of the concern for the well-being of the participants playing hockey, has committed significant resources and efforts to make our players safe.
