Our Coaches
All KMBA coaches, assistant coaches and managers are required to have criminal record / Child abuse check completed prior to the start of each season.
For the criminal record check, you will need a copy of the Volunteer letter, provided by KMBA. You then take the letter to your local detachment to be completed.
For the Child abuse check you can apply online at https://beta.novascotia.ca/apply-child-abuse-register-search
