Registration Frequently Asked Questions
The Fort McMurray Minor Hockey Association (FMMHA) believes that all children should have the opportunity to play hockey. We are dedicated to removing financial barriers to ensure that no child is turned away due to affordability.
As minor hockey costs continue to rise each year, it is important for families to feel comfortable seeking assistance if needed. FMMHA is committed to supporting families to ensure every child has the opportunity to participate in minor hockey.
If financial circumstances become a barrier to a child’s involvement, FMMHA is here to provide support. Resources are available to help support families with registration fees. More information can be found in our Financial Aid section.
Yes, you can make payments in various ways. You can visit our office to pay by cash, debit, or cheque. Alternatively, you can make an EFT payment to payments@fmmha.com. When making an EFT payment, please include your child's name in the memo/comment area.
To pay via EFT or in person, proceed to the CHECKOUT section where it asks for credit card information. Once there, email Roland at hockeyops@fmmha.com with your child's name and confirmation that you have sent the EFT payment.
If paying in person, you will still need to reach the CHECKOUT section so we can complete your registration.
All players are required to supply their own gear, including practice jerseys.
There are no additional costs to play Recreation Hockey (WBHL) from FMMHA. However, WBHL teams may choose to participate in additional activities beyond registration, such as team gear, extra development, and tournaments. Teams will be required to build a team budget that includes a parent commitment fee as per the WBHL financial policy.
Players selected for Rep/travel teams will have additional fees to FMMHA for costs beyond registration, such as higher referee costs, additional ice time, extra equipment for travel teams, and league fees. These teams will also build a budget that will determine the fees as per the Travel financial policy. There will be parent sessions at the start of the season so everyone is aware of the financial commitments prior to committing to a team each season.
At the start of the season, each team is required to propose a budget to parents and conduct a vote to ensure the additional expenses are supported by the majority of families.
FMMHA does not have mandatory fundraising requirements; however, teams may engage in fundraising events and activities throughout the season.
It is required by our financial directives that all teams offer a fundraising buyout option.
For players on Rep/travel teams, fundraising commitments are mandatory, if a parent chooses not to participate in fundraising or the buyout the player may be removed from the roster.
In Recreational Hockey (WBHL), if a parent chooses not to participate in fundraising or the buyout, their child will be excluded from any agreed-upon extracurricular activities, such as team gear, traveling to tournaments, or extra development opportunities.
Yes, we require five (5) hours of volunteer work per child for FMMHA. As a volunteer organization, this is crucial to keeping registration costs down. Failure to complete the required volunteer hours will result in an invoice of $100 for each hour not completed, potentially up to $500 per child.
Volunteer opportunities within the organization include coaching, managing, and helping with special events. In addition to the organizational commitment, there are team responsibilities you accept as a parent when registering your child for a team sport, such as managing jerseys and scorekeeping.
Volunteer levies are not charged upfront but invoiced at the end of each season and must be paid before a child can be placed on a roster for the following season. If your family is in an exceptional circumstance and cannot complete the required hours, we do offer support.
We don't want your money; we need your time to ensure that FMMHA events run successfully. Please visit the Volunteer Directive for more information.
A full refund of the registration fee, less an administrative fee of $50, will be issued for any player who withdraws prior to August 15 of the current season.
After August 15, the following refund guidelines apply: Players who withdraw from formed rep teams, with approved budgets, remain responsible for fixed team expenses incurred up to the withdrawal date (excluding costs dependent on player participation).
