Coaching

IRHA runs solely on volunteers, this includes our coaches. If you have interest in helping out on the ice as Head Coach, Assistant Coach or On Ice Helper please volunteer. 

All Coaches, new and returning, need to fill out the below Coaching Application and Submit the coaching application to Dale Hopper DHopper@ironrangehockey.com.

The new USAH CEP is upon us.  Only one level can be taken a year and age appropriate modules must be taken prior to going on the ice.  If you coach at more than one level, you have to take age appropriate modules at each level.  See the USA Hockey website for more information.  You can check your particular level and it will tell you what you need to do.
