2009-10 Coach Application Forms Online
This year, the RMHA is introducing a new coach selection process for all of our teams.  Part of this process is the attached Coaching Application Form.  This form is for all interested Head Coaches.    In the RMHA, all Assistant Coaches and Managers are selected by the Head Coach of the team.  Interviews may be conducted for all applications but certainly will be conducted for teams where multiple coaches have applied for the same team.  We are committed to selecting the best candidates for our member’s children.

Please check out the "Coaches/Managers" tab in the menu for more details and to obtain the form.
