Return to Ringette - Winter session
Exciting news!
As the provincial government slowly allows a loosening of restrictions and Region of Waterloo is set to start opening up February 16th, we are looking ahead to get back on the ice, and to offer our first Winter Session.
Registration is OPEN for a 4 week session with an approximate start date of February 20th. This start date may vary slightly, but as we receive confirmation from the City of Waterloo we will communicate your official ice times to you.
We are glad to be heading back to the ice with 10 skater practices. If restrictions are further lifted we are hoping to offer scrimmages.
Please join us for our first 4 week session, starting approximately February 20th.
Cost is $60 for the session = 1 ice time/week
A few notable items:
1. We are currently in RED zone = skating and modified distance drills only, there is no contact or game play permitted
2. Each player can register for ONE session with in their cohort to start to ensure everyone has a spot
3. You can let us know if you are interested in a second session and if there are spaces you will be able to register your child for further ice times each week

5. During the 4 week session, should we enter ORANGE or higher zone in the Ontario COVID 19 Framework, the groups for each cohort will be combined and we will return to scrimmages/games when allowed
