Child Safeguarding & Member Protection

Ice Hockey South Australia (South Australian Ice Hockey Association Inc) is committed to providing and promoting child safe environments. Ice Hockey South Australia has zero tolerance to child abuse and aims to create a child safe and child friendly environment where children feel safe and secure and have fun. This includes the physical, emotional, cultural and social wellbeing of all children. Ice Hockey South Australia has adopted the national child safe principles as outlined below:
National Principles for Child Safe Organisations

1. Child safety and wellbeing is embedded in organisational leadership, governance and culture.

2. Children and young people are informed about their rights, participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously.

3. Families and communities are informed and involved in promoting child safety and wellbeing.

4. Equity is upheld and diverse needs respected in policy and practice.

5. People working with children and young people are suitable and supported to reflect child safety and wellbeing values in practice.

6. Processes to respond to complaints and concerns are child focused.

7. Staff and volunteers are equipped with the knowledge, skills and awareness to keep children and young people safe through ongoing education and training.

8. Physical and online environments promote safety and wellbeing while minimising the opportunity for children and young people to be harmed.

9. Implementation of the national child safe principles is regularly reviewed and improved.

10. Policies and procedures document how the organisation is safe for children and young people.

Report an Incident or Injury

Need to report an incident?
Fill in our Incident Report Form.

Need to report an Injury?
If you are injured while playing or training in sanctioned activities, it is important that you follow the steps below. Especially if you take any time out from the activity (even a few minutes to recover).

Make sure your coach knows. They will organise any first aid you may need, and they will let the association know about your injury by using the In-Game Injury Report .
Get checked out if you need. If there is any suspicion of concussion, don’t second guess this. Go to a GP or emergency department and get checked out.
- All benches have a Concussion protocol form on display (CRT6) to help identify early signs of concussion.
Fill out the IHA Injury report. This lets us know more about your injury and any possible recovery time. It also helps the association track recurring injuries in our leagues.
If you need to make an insurance claim, you should now have all you need to be able to do this. Always access the form from the IHA insurance site to ensure you have the most current document.
- You have 30 days from injury to submit your claim, which includes information completed by your treating physician.

The notices and QR Codes to access the various forms are located at the Ice Arena on the side of the IHSA Lockers (near Change Room 4) for easy access.
Always follow directions on the IHSA or IHA website for up-to-date information on making a claim.
