All team related assignments will be listed in the TYH Crossbar app. To see a list of assignments click on each game individually. Please see the Parents page for information on downloading and setting up the Crossbar app.

Parents are required to help fulfill team responsibilities. Positions include but are not limited to; penalty box attendant, score clock operator, score keeper, or tournament positions. Team Managers will provide a schedule of positions that need to be filled for games.

In addition to game time responsibilities each team Mite - Bantam will be required to fulfill Open Skate duties. The Open Skate nights will be divided up between each team at the beginning of the season. Team Managers will assign parents to tasks during each Open Skate Night.

If you are not able to meet the obligation, please work with team families to move around the schedule. Team responsibilities cannot be “bought out” unless chosen to pay someone to do the responsibilities (which would be between the payer and payee.)

Please consider working a few extra hours to help out your team!
