RULE OF TWO
posted Jan 23, 2023, 7:00 PM
In accordance with SkateCanada direction, Ice Edge Skating Club will be adhering to the Rule of Two during all on-ice and off-ice training classes. The goal of the Rule of Two is to ensure all interactions and communications are open, observable and justifiable. Its purpose is to protect participants and coaches in potentially vulnerable situations by ensuring more than one adult is present.
Our club is committed to ensuring the well-being and safety of our skaters, and adhering to the Rule of Two is one of the ways that we will do so.
We are seeking parent volunteers to assist in ensuring we have 2 adults present at all training sessions. While many of our on-ice sessions already have 2 coaches, we require a parent volunteer to be present for the following Winter PreStarSkate and StarSkate classes:
All Dryland Training (Sunday from 12-1pm and Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 5:45-6:15pm)
On-ice training on Tuesday afternoons (4-5:30pm)
On-ice training on Wednesday and Friday mornings (6:30-7:30am)
We know that many parents already choose to stay and watch their skaters during these times, so we would appreciate if you could put forward your name as the volunteer if you already plan to be there. If there are times when no parent volunteers come forward, members of the Board will reach out to parents directly to solicit volunteers as needed.
We are going to track volunteers through SignUp Genius. In order to volunteer, please use the following link to sign up: Ice Edge Skating Club: Rule of 2 - Parent Volunteer (signupgenius.com)
(note: when you sign up, you may be asked to accept a privacy statement and will have to select “Got It” to proceed)
At this time, we are seeking volunteers to fill slots for the winter sessions only (January through March 2023). The club is currently finalizing the Spring schedule and looking to have 2 coaches available for all sessions where ever possible.
Thank you so much for your support. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
