Locker Room Monitoring
Hyland Hills Hockey Association has predictable and limited use of locker rooms and changing areas (e.g., generally 30-45 minutes before and following practices and games). This allows for direct and regular monitoring of locker room areas. While constant monitoring inside of locker rooms and changing area might be the most effective way to prevent problems, we understand that this would likely make some players uncomfortable and may even place our staff at risk for unwarranted suspicion. We conduct a sweep of the locker rooms and changing areas, and if the coaches are not inside the locker rooms, either a team manager or locker room monitor (each of which has been screened) will be monitor the locker rooms and changing areas during periods of use. Team personnel will also secure the locker room appropriately during times when the team is on the ice.
