**Player and coaches who registered online at usahockey.com are not required to complete a paper Waiver of Liability.  An ampersand (&) in the W column of the official team roster indicates the Waiver of Liability is not required.  For these individuals, the Waiver of Liability was electronically signed during the online registration process.  Registration confirmation pages are not required.   Typically, this is only needed for team managers who cannot register online.  Our WMAHA registrar will register each manager.

USA Hockey forms are required, and are available under the Team Manager Form / Materials section of our website at www.utahjuniorgrizzlies.com.  USA Hockey Waiver of Liability forms are available from our WMAHA registrar.
