FAQ'S

When are Travel Permits necessary?
You need a Travel Permit to travel outside your zone or the Province.

How do I apply for a Travel Permit? 
Hockey Canada has created an online Travel Permit application.  Coaches or Managers will have to go on the Hockey Nova Scotia Website under Development of Coaches and set up an E-Learning Account for their own use.  (STEP BY STEP)The coach or manager must first be registered on a team for the current year so they can use their team number and their personal HCR identification number, to set up the account. (If you are not registered on a team, please contact admin@pcmha.com.)
Once the account is set up the coach or manager can apply for a Travel Permit online from anywhere by accessing the HCR Site.  Up to five permits at a time can be applied for and they are automatically approved.  Once the permit is applied for the coach or manager can then print off a copy to take with them as they travel. The Travel Permit program generates a travel permit number, which can be used on the team's game sheet.
Requests should be in by Thursday evening for that weekend and not left to FRIDAY NIGHT.

What about AAA league games?
AAA teams travelling for league games are covered by a blanket travel permit. A travel permit must be obtained for any travel outside of our zone for exhibition or non-league games or tournaments. Any travel outside of the province requires a travel permit.
