Essential Registration Steps

Welcome to RDMH 2025-2026 Registration

Steps 1 and 2 MUST be completed before Step 3 (Registering).
If these are not done, your registration will not be processed and your player will be ineligible to participate.

Step 1: Spordle / HCR Setup  - [Instructions]

1. Login or create your Spordle account - [Login here]

2. Link your child’s player profile to your Spordle account. 

3. If your player already has a Hockey Canada profile, you must link it to your parent account.

   • ** If your player is brand new, create a new HCR profile in Spordle.

4. Once the profile is linked, upload the required documents under Docuements on your player’s profile 

   • Birth Certificate

   • 2 Proofs of Residency (see list below)
     I cannot verify or approve your player’s registration until the profile is linked and these documents are uploaded.

5. Locate your child’s Hockey Canada Member # in their profile (needed for RIS Parent Certification).

**NEW (May 16, 2025):

• Brand new players must create their HCR number directly in Spordle. [Instructions]

• This HCR number must be entered when signing up for RIS Parent so the certificate shows properly in HCR.

Step 2: Respect in Sport Parent (RISP)

1. Login to Respect in Sport ? [Access course here].

2. Complete or renew your Parent Certificate (every 4 years).

3. Make sure the certificate is:

   • A Parent Certificate (not a Coach one).

   • Make sure it is showing in your child’s HCR profile under Qualification
     If it is not showing in the player’s profile, your player is ineligible to participate.
