The following is the PYISC Volunteer Screening Policy. All potential coaches and assistant coaches are asked to first read the policy.

Please note that as of the 2007/08 season, Police Record Checks are required every three years.
Original Police Record Checks obtained for other volunteer organizations - ie. school, other sports etc. which have been obtained within this time frame will be accepted as well.

If necessary, to obtain your Police Record Check, complete the PYISC Volunteer form (see link at left) and present to the Police Department.

If you are a resident of the City of Peterborough, you will need to go the police station on Water Street. There should be no charge to you when obtaining the record check at Peterborough Police station. The Club has made arrangements for payment with the police. However, please be prepared to pay the cost of $6.00 which the Club will reimburse. Please request a receipt if you do need to pay.

Residents outside of the city will have to go to the OPP or residents of the City of Kawartha Lakes will have to obtain their police record check at the City of Kawartha Lakes Police Department. There is no charge at the Peterborough OPP and the City of Kawartha Lakes OPP. If asked to pay, please request a receipt and the Club will reimburse you.
