POLICE INFORMATION CHECK(PIC)

One of the tools MW HOCKEY can use to ensure the safety of our children is to require a Police Information Check(PIC)  of any adult who plans to be a part of the training or coaching staff of one of our teams this season. It is mandatory and no individual will be assigned to a team unless an application is completed.  All persons interested in helping as trainers or assistant coaches must also submit an application.  It is the responability the Coaching Staff to reach out to the Administrator to request an application. 

 The results of a Police Information Check are only disclosed to the applicant.  A Police Information Check only provides the information required for a volunteer organization to make an informed decision regarding the suitability of an applicant and should not be the only factor accounted for when considering an applicant for volunteer purposes.
 

• Must be 18 years or older to submit an application 

• Application has to be done through the Millwoods Hockey Program

• Police checks are valid for 3 years

• There is no cost associated with the application 

• Millwood's Hockey  does not keep copies of Police Checks  received on file and it is recommended that you print/save a copy for your future reference

To view the status of your Police Information Check (PIC) on your Spordle account and select Background Check.


What is a PIC : Police Information Check performed by the City of Edmonton Police Service.

Process For Application :
The City of Edmonton Police Service has implemented an online police information check system which allows for a PIC application without having to visit a police station (in most cases).
For more detailed information concerning the Police Information Check process, please visit the Calgary Police Service website under Police Information Checks

Recieve An Attend Letter: After a successfully submitted PIC application, some individuals may receive an "attend" letter before they receive their results. This letter requests you to make a follow up appointment with the Calgary Police Information Check Unit. More details about this can be found under "Receive An Attend Letter?".
