Local Travel. Local travel occurs when one of Compuware Youth Hockey’s teams does not sponsor, coordinate, or arrange for travel. • Players and/or their parents/guardians are responsible for making all arrangements for local travel. The team and its coaches, managers, or administrators should avoid responsibility for arranging or coordinating local travel. It is the responsibility of the parents/guardians to ensure the person transporting the minor player maintains the proper safety and legal requirements, including, but not limited to, a valid driver’s license, automobile liability insurance, a vehicle in safe working order, and compliance with applicable state laws. • The employees, coaches, and/or volunteers of Compuware Youth Hockey or one of its teams, who are not also acting as a parent, should not drive alone with an unrelated minor player and should only drive with at least two players or another adult at all times, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the minor player’s parent. • Where an employee, coach, and/or volunteer is involved in an unrelated minor player’s local travel, efforts should be made to ensure that the adult personnel are not alone with the unrelated player, by, e.g., picking up or dropping off the players in groups. In any case where an employee, coach and/or volunteer is involved in the player’s local travel, a parental release should be obtained in advance. • Employees, coaches, and volunteers who are also a player’s parent or guardian may provide shared transportation for any player(s) if they pick up their player first and drop off their player last in any shared or carpool travel arrangement. • It is recognized that in some limited instances it will be unavoidable for an employee, coach, or volunteer of Compuware Youth Hockey or one of its teams to drive alone with an unrelated minor player. However, efforts should be made to minimize these occurrences and to mitigate any circumstances that could lead to allegations of abuse or misconduct.

Regular monitoring and curfew checks will be made of each room by at least two properly screened adults. • The team personnel shall ask hotels to block adult pay per view channels. • Individual meetings between a player and coach may not occur in hotel sleeping rooms and must be held in public settings or with additional adults present. • All players will be permitted to make regular check-in phone calls to parents.
