Is there anything else I need to know about registration?


Yes! Please see additional comments regarding registration below.


  • Evaluations are mandatory for all U9 - U15 players. Evaluation fees are $75 per player and are in excess of the fees outlined in the table above. These fees are payable at the time of registration.


  • When registering in Spordle, you will be asked if you have an address change; do you need to add additional contacts; or documents to upload. If there are no changes from the prior year you can just click “register”


  • If your child is trying out for a team outside of CIS (high school, AA/AAA regional teams), please indicate this in the comments field of their registration and select CHEQUE as method of payment. Please let CIS know before September 30th if your child will be playing with CIS or not. Please register them separately from your other children if you wish to pay for your other children by credit card.


  • Cash calendars - cash calendars will be payable upon registration. A fee of $200 will be applied to each child registered, however upon finalizing your check out you will see a discount for $200 for each registration greater than 1. It is important to register your family all at once otherwise the discount may not be applied properly. 


Does CIS offer a payment plan?


Yes! In addition to full payment at time of registration, CIS also offers a 3-payment plan:


  1. 40% at time of registration

  2. 30% due October 31st

  3. 30% due November 30th


If you choose to pay via credit card, payments will automatically be charged to your card on the payment dates. If you don't have a credit card and want to sign up for the 3-payment plan, please contact clippersvicepresident@gmail.com.


What do registration fees cover?


  • Ice rental fees (practices and games)

  • Referee fees

  • Hockey Manitoba fees (includes insurance)

  • Eastman league team and individual fees

  • Evaluation fees

  • Use of game jerseys

  • Equipment (pucks, nets, cones, first aid kids, etc)

  • Player and goalie development

  • Coaching development


Other than registration fees, are there other fees and expenses throughout the season?


Yes. At the beginning of the season, teams will collect additional fees to pay for team specific expenses, such as tournament entry fees, team events, etc. In general, team fees range from $100-$300 per player depending on the age group. Team fees will be discussed with your team coach and manager  at the start of the season. 


How many tournaments will my child participate in?


Eastman will allow each team to black out (no scheduled games) one weekend in the first half of the season and one weekend in the second half of the season.  Teams (U9-U18) will have one black out weekend for their home tournament and then there would be a potential for the team to book one more tournament in the other half of the season.  Essentially it would be a maximum of two tournaments per team (including home tournaments).


Does CIS do any fundraisers during the year?


Yes. CIS has two main fundraisers during the season.


  1. Cash Calendars - every family is required to sell 10 cash calendar raffle tickets at a cost of $20 each for a total of $200. This can be paid at the time of registration via the Hockey Canada website or prior to the start of the hockey season.


  1. Tournaments - CIS hosts tournaments for U9 - U18 age groups. Parents are expected to work a minimum of three volunteer shifts at their child’s respective tournament.


What is the refund policy?


CIS will provide refunds to members who do not wish to continue playing hockey. To be eligible for a refund, please contact CIS via email.


  • Prior to Sept 1, 2025 - full refund minus a $50 administration fee

  • Prior to Sept 30, 2025 – partial refund (registration fee less Eastman fee, Hockey Manitoba fee, Hockey Manitoba fee and $50 administration fee) 

  • After Sept 30, 2025 – no refunds


The CIS Board have the discretion to accept and process late filed refund applications but reserve the right to apply additional fees. 



When does the season begin and end?

  • Sept 13 - Sept 26: Conditioning skates (U9 - U18)

  • Sept 27 - Oct 5: Evaluation skates (U9 - U15)

  • First week of October (date TBD): Evaluation skate (U7 only)

  • Oct 14 - Mar 8: Regular season (U7)

  • Oct 14  - Mar 28: Regular season (U9)/Playoffs (U11 - U18)


What night/date/time/location will my child be playing?


This is a difficult question to answer before the season starts as we do not know what our registration numbers will be. We understand it makes it difficult to plan other activities for your child when you don't know their hockey schedule. Unfortunately, with numerous teams, there are a lot of moving parts and it takes time to finalize schedules. We will make every effort to get a schedule out as early as possible and we appreciate your patience!


What is the Respect in Sport Online Course?

Hockey Manitoba has implemented the mandatory online Respect in Sport Parent Program. For a child to be eligible to play on a sanctioned Hockey Manitoba team, this online course must be completed by at least one parent or legal guardian of any minor hockey player by November 1st. The RIS Parent Program is separate from the RIS Coach/Manager certification and therefore must be completed regardless of whether you have taken the RIS Coach certification in the past. The cost of this online program is $12 + GST and is not covered by CIS.


Respect in Sport link: Respect in Sport for Parents.

Please make sure to add all your children (who will be registering for hockey) to your RIS Parent Program profile.
