Ogden Jr Mustangs
Coach and Volunteer
Applications OPEN NOW



All 2025-26 Ogden Jr Mustangs coaches and volunteers need to register with USA Hockey for the 2025-26 season after April 1, 2025.
First, you will need to get your 2025-26 USA Hockey number and make sure you put your name into the registration exactly as it appears in your USA Hockey member registration. Here is the USA Hockey membership link - https://membership.usahockey.com/
The 2025-26 USA Hockey coach registration number must be submitted to the Jr Mustangs through the Jr Mustangs coach and volunteer registration portal. This allows the Ogden Jr Mustangs Registrar to place each coach and volunteer on a Jr Mustangs official roster. A 2025-26 USA Hockey number is needed to complete this process. Coaches cannot participate with a team until they register with the Jr Mustangs and are on the team's 1-T roster.
USA Hockey numbers are issued at the completion of the 2025-26 USA Hockey Coach registration. The USA Hockey registration can be found at https://membership.usahockey.com/register/age. This is a mandatory step.
The USA Hockey portal for the 2025-26 coach registration will open in early April 2025.
The Ogden Jr Mustangs portal for Coach Registration will open on April 5, 2025. Not everyone who submits an application as a volunteer or coach will be selected to serve as a coach or volunteer.
