Carleton Place Girls Hockey Association Equipment Policy

Jersey Policy

Teams are required to give a $250 deposit for their jerseys via e transfer. Any jersey deposits that are not received and the jerseys are returned in an unrepairable condition will have the amount charged to the players account in RAMP. No releases, Permissions to Skate (PTS) or registration will be approved until the amount is paid as the player will be considered not in good standing.

Awareness of jersey allotment is the responsibility of the Head Coach and Manager of each team. The Manager keeps a record of each players’ number and contact information which is to be provided to the equipment manager once all jerseys are handed out.

Jersey Distribution

• No jersey can be handed out to a player without a garment bag. Jerseys must be on a hanger and in a garment bag when not worn.
• Jerseys provided to affiliates are to be kept by the Coach/Manager and not provided to the player to ensure that the jerseys are kept in the set. Coaches/Managers will be assigned remaining jerseys and be responsible for the return of those jerseys or will be charged the fee for any missing or damaged jerseys
• Damp/sweaty jerseys are not to be left in garment bags as they are susceptible to staining and mold, which make them unusable and undesirable to wear. Launder or ensure jerseys are dry before storing in the garment bags.
• Launder jerseys inside-out as required and hang to dry.
• Jerseys are for games only - to keep the life of the jerseys longer, teams must use practice jerseys for practices and only use CPGHA jerseys for Home and Away games. Exceptions may be made for full association events.

Name Bars

Name Bars are to be purchased through the approved vendor. Colours for name bars are: Blue with yellow lettering, and white with blue lettering.

• Dark name bars on dark jerseys, white name bars on white jerseys.
• Name bars are to be stitched on by the approved CPGHA tailor.
• No adhesive is to be used on any jersey.
• Removal of name bars is to be done by the approved CPGHA tailor.
• Damage to jerseys upon return will be charged to the player for replacement cost.
• The player name bar must match the name on the roster.
• Name bars are to be attached at the top of the jersey.
• Teams may choose to coordinate name bar application/removal so that the approved tailor receives all team jerseys at the same time.

Jersey Collection

At the end of the season, jerseys must be washed and returned in good condition to the team’s Head Coach/Manager on hangers. The Head Coach/Manager is to return both sets of jerseys in good condition sorted as above to the Equipment Manager no later than April 30th of the current season.

Collection dates will be posted on the website. The Equipment Manager WILL NOT accept partial returns of jerseys; the Head Coach/Manager will be turned away at collection without a complete set of Home/Away jerseys. Failure to return all the jerseys in their care will result in both Player and Coach/Manager being not in good standing with the CPGHA and will impact the following year’s registration. Jerseys that are not returned will be charged $75 per jersey and this fee must be paid prior to registration for the following year.

** No CPGHA Jersey will be permitted to be used outside of CPGHA for any reason i.e. they are not to be used for Spring Leagues.**
