Volunteer Coaching Registration

The Golden Spike Amatuer Hockey Association program is built on volunteers who support and teach the children the game of hockey. We want and need volunteers who are willing to give of their time. However, GSAHA's first responsibility is to the safety of the children. Therefore the following standards will be enforced:

Please register your children with Golden Spike prior to registering as a coach.
This will allow the data to be utilized more efficently. If you have not registered your children click here.
If you do not have children, but still want to participate, continue with this registration.

Policy 1 - Individual Member Registration (IMR)

It is the policy of USA Hockey that any person stepping on the ice is required to have a current IMR number. If you do not have your current IMR, please click on "Get My IMR Number". You will be directed to the USA Hockey website. Once you have your barcode number, please return to this page to continue registering as a coach. Golden Spike does not provide reimbursement for the IMR registration.

Policy 2 - Background Investigation

It is the policy of the Utah Amateur Hockey Association and Golden Spike Hockey that a background/screening is performed on all individuals in a coaching capacity and is performed through a private company. If you have not submitted your background investigation request, please click on "Submit My Background". You will be directed to the Spectrum.
