NOT ON THE TEAM ROSTER?
If you completed your USA Hockey and MSH Registration, but do not see your name on your team roster, it could be because you have not completed the SafeSport Requirement or Background Check (over 18 volunteers only need this). All players and volunteers must complete the SafeSport requirement if they were born in or before 2007.
