What Does a Timekeeper Do?

Timekeepers play a vital role in the operation of minor hockey games. Working alongside on-ice officials and team staff, timekeepers are responsible for:

  • Operating the game clock and scoreboard

  • Recording goals, penalties, and shots on goal (if required)

  • Managing the penalty box and penalty timing

  • Completing and submitting accurate game sheets

Timekeepers are essential in maintaining the flow and fairness of the game by ensuring accurate timekeeping and game documentation. It’s a great opportunity for young people to develop responsibility, confidence, and communication skills while staying engaged with the sport.


Who Can Be a Timekeeper?

Typically, timekeepers are: 

  • Reliable and punctual

  • Comfortable using technology (scoreboard controllers, online game sheets, etc.)

  • Able to focus and stay alert during fast-paced games

Training is provided, and timekeepers are paid per game.
