COACHING EDUCATION PROGRAM (CEP) for New and Returning WBLHA Coaches 

All youth hockey coaches in Minnesota and the rest of the country are required to attend a series of clinics before they are eligible to coach.  The clinics are designed to help coaches provide curriculum and use the proper teaching techniques to insure the proper development of their players. The card is valid for three seasons. Therefore, if your last clinic sticker says 2005-06 then you need to get recertified at the same level or move up to the next level.
Before registering for a clinic, please download and read the
Coach's Clinic Registration Manual
