5.22 TEAM FUND-RAISING INFORMATION
Teams may raise funds for tournament and travel expenses (or for extraordinary playdown travel expenses), tournament entry fees, keepsakes (reasonable amount), team functions, conditioning, team building and/or development activities, and tournament accommodations for non-parent officials and team supplies.
Teams may not raise funds to offset the cost of registration fees, Representative Team Assessments, tournament accommodations for players and meals for parents or siblings at tournaments.
Due to the onerous licensing requirements by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), lotteries or raffles are not permitted for team or group fundraising under the Sarnia Hockey Association.
Any fundraising that the team participates in, is to be used for team expenses. Fundraising is not to be used for the financial gain of the parents; therefore, fundraising cannot exceed the Team’s budget. Sale of equipment owned by SHA is prohibited.
