Importing a roster from the Hockey Canada Registry (HCR)

Using GameSheet's integration with Hockey Canada, teams have the ability to import their Hockey Canada approved roster directly into their GameSheet team. The process is easy and all you need to get started is your Hockey Canada Team ID.

  2. Click HCR Import.
  3. Enter the team’s Hockey Canada Team ID & the Organization
  4. Review the Lock roster option, then start the import process.

    This option is enabled by default for users with permission to lock and unlock rosters. Learn more about roster locking.

  5. Preview the players and staff returned by Hockey Canada. Confirm this is the correct team, then click Confirm Team.
  6. Review the details of any team linking, staff invitations, or notifications, then click Import Roster.

Nothing is saved until the Final confirmation.

Team linking and staff access

GameSheet checks for the same Hockey Canada Team ID in other Seasons within the current stats year and links teams where permitted. Active staff on the linked team are notified that their access carries over. Otherwise, the Head Coach is invited when Hockey Canada provides their email.

Pro Tips

  • Team IDs can be found on the Official Team Roster. You can get a copy of your Official Team Roster from your local association's registrar.
  • The Team ID is formatted as a # sign followed by 16 digits. The first 4 digits should be the year that the team is being registered for. E.g. 2021 followed by 12 other digits. E.g. #2021532900001105
  • If your roster does not import, double check that your Team ID is correct and that your roster is approved — only approved rosters can be imported.
