Children's Ringette Programs

FUNdamentals - FUN1, FUN2 and FUN3

The FUNdamentals program focuses on developing skating ability, introducing ringette skills and having fun.

There are three progressive age categories in FUNdamentals - FUN1, FUN2, and FUN3.

Many players start with some basic skating skills, but that is not a requirement at this age. Ringette is a great way to learn to skate while having fun!

FUN1 is for children, usually ages 4-6, who are new to ringette or skating, learning basic game structure, and still developing basic skills. FUN1 has one ice time per week and is usually on Sunday mornings. This program will begin mid-October.

FUN2 is for children, usually ages 6-8, who are learning to lengthen their stride, ready to learn more rules of ringette, and have developed some basic skills. This group plays “Mini Ringette” against other association teams. “Mini Ringette” is half-ice games that are divided at center ice. FUN2 has one to two ice times per week, one practice and a game during the weekend. This program will begin mid-October.

FUN3 is for children, usually 8-9, who demonstrate that they have acquired the physical, cognitive, and social readiness for more challenging play. This group plays full-ice ringette. FUN3 has two ice times per week, generally one practice during the week and a game during the weekend. This program will begin mid-September.
