All youth teams participating in Provincial Championships must have a coach with a status of 'TRAINED' or CERTIFIED on the bench during games. Coaches must have completed the NCCP Learn to Train course giving them a status of 'TRAINED' OR their full NCCP Level 1 certification under the old system. Coaches unable to meet this requirement may apply for a One Year Extension ($75). Coaches that have previously received this extension may not reapply.

If you are unsure of your certification, you can check here or contact the BNB Office.
