On behalf of the Santa Fe Hockey Association, kudos to all of our coaches for their dedication to the Capitals.  We are stoked for the upcoming year and are working on finalizing the coaching staff, including selecting a new head coach, scheduling an all-coach meeting, and publishing a coaching handbook. The most urgent item on the drawing board is ensuring that our coaches meet the USA Hockey requirements. To facilitate the process, we created the SFHA Safe Sport & CEP Form. Please complete the form with your credentials. SFHA is pleased to reimburse you for the associated costs; you can request reimbursement via the same form.
