All players will be required to arrive at the given airport(s) in the given window of time. It’s important that you book your flight to match the team itinerary. Those who do not follow the Canada Inline schedule will be responsible for the full cost of getting themselves to the hotel, or back to the airport.
Valid Canadian Passport
Please make sure you have a valid passport. This means that your passport must be valid 6 months beyond your travel date. If it is set to expire before then, please make sure you get it renewed (there are multiple Passport Canada offices located across the country). Please make sure you get this all sorted out in time as Canada Inline management will require a scan / copy of your passport once named to the team, as we are responsible to submit rosters with proof of citizenship to the tournaments.
