Payback Program

NMHA Supervision Payback Program

Objective: Complete 500 supervisions

The HEO Minor has asked John Reid, HEO Minor RIC, to have each district complete 500 supervisions for the hockey season.

Therefore, the Nepean Minor Hockey Association Officiating Program (NMHAOP) will need your full support to make the supervision program successful.

The NMHAOP executive has started a Supervision and ‘Pay Back’ pilot program in for all referees of all levels, to ensure that we meet the goal of 500 supervisions and to support the development of officials. To date, we have been successful completing the 500 supervisions each year since it started.

Supervision and ‘Pay Back’ Program

NMHAOP has already established a supervision program, with the development funds from the NMHA.  A few years ago we were short by half of

our goal of 500 supervisions, therefore, it is clear that more effort and motivation are required. The executive started the Supervision and ‘Pay Back’ Pilot program for one year, and we successfully met the target of 500 supervisions.

Each official will be required to complete certain tasks asked by our program in order to receive recognition, promotions, awards and prizes.

 

Below are a list of tasks to be completed for each level of official in the NMHAOP.  Each task must be witnessed by any NMHA/NMHAOP executive members, who will then email the Director of Officials reporting that the official has completed the required task.

Each official must submit a ‘Pay Back’ program form online with the selection of which tasks they wish to complete. This form can be found at the following link:
