Game Management
Team Binder
As the team manager you are required to bring several items to every game. To make your job easier, we recommend that you put together a binder that includes the items outlined below.
All Teams
- Every player's birth certificate
- Copy of official USA Hockey roster
- Contact info for:
- Missouri Hockey age level commissioner
- Opposing team staff
10U Squirt & Above
- Scoresheets
- Roster stickers
- Directions for filling out score sheet
- Directions for the scoreboard
- Pens & scratch paper
roster stickers
Rather than fill out your roster and coaches' information on every scoresheet, you should make roster stickers. The best size stickers to use are Avery 5163 labels (10 to a sheet).
Information that should be included on these labels should be:
- Team Name
- Players' numbers and first & last names
- Coaches' names and CEP numbers
- Team Manager's phone & email
home game responsibilities (squirt & above)
prior to each home game
- Check referee schedule on MIHOA website to ensure your game is properly covered
- Schedule parents for game management roles (it is best to make a schedule and have every family take a turn for each position):
- Official scorekeeper (scoresheet)
- Scoreboard operator
- Penalty box attendant (if needed)
scoresheet management
before the game
- Apply your team's roster stickers
- Have visiting team manager apply their team's roster stickers
- Have both teams' coaches sign scoresheet prior to the game
after the game
- Have referees sign the scoresheet
- Get the scoresheet back from your scorekeeper volunteer
- White copy: keep for your records
- Pink copy: give to visiting team manager
- Yellow copy: can be discarded
- Note: some managers take a photo of the white copy as the pink/yellow sheets can be difficult to read.
- Enter the score on Missouri Hockey's Website ASAP and upload an image of the scoresheet.
