Open Division

SPRA currently has 3 Open B teams. Previous players of these teams have priority registration, players may be added to the teams if there is space available on their rosters.

We are also taking registrations for those interested in playing Open who do not have a team. There is currently no guarantee on whether there is enough interest to form another team and what level it would be.

Please contact our Open Coordinator (Amanda - email opendirector@sherwoodparkringette.ca) if you’d like to play on or manage a new Open team.

Fundraising Fee

Raffle tickets will be distributed in October.
You will have an opportunity to recoup you fundraising fee by selling your raffle tickets. The Raffle has been changed to a “Cash for Christmas” raffle for this season rather than travel vouchers.

U10 Registration Fees

U10 Step 1, 2, 3 fees have been adjusted this season to align with the amount of ice each Step is allocated. Step 1 and Step 2 will play half-ice games for the 2020/21 Ringette Season. Step 3 will continue to play full ice games. Step 1 ice allocation will conform to the Guidelines as set out by Ringette Canada and Ringette Alberta and adopted by Black Gold Ringette League. As participants are assigned to teams based on the criteria set out in Children’s Ringette (Yourringette.ca), SPRA will add the applicable fee to your account and provide notice by e-mail from SPRA’s registrar to indicate an additional fee is payable and will be added to member’s payment plan.

Evaluations

For specific information about the evaluation process, please refer to Evaluation Guides that will be posted on SPRA’s website for each Age Division by August 1, 2020. Evaluation Schedules will not be released until a return to play guideline has been released by Ringette Alberta.

Current Situation

SPRA is committed to providing a safe return to ringette for our members. SPRA’s Board of Directors are staying updated as information is communicated by Ringette Alberta and their work with the Alberta Government on a return to play plan. SPRA will continue to work on a contingency plan to have in place with respect to a modified season structure and/or program delivery, based on recommendations and requirements from Ringette Alberta. Season fees will be reviewed and adjusted accordingly based on a return to play plan and/or start / stop to the season.
