Frequently Asked Questions:

How much ice can I expect a week?

• UFUN1 up to our U19 teams will typically be on the ice twice a week. Our Open C ladies have weekly ice and our Open A tournament team has monthly ice. Ringette ice is Tuesday and Thursday nights, Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons.

What additional fees can I expect?

• A Volunteer Bond of $250.00/per family or Open C Player is also required to be paid by post-dated cheque. A $150 bond is required for Open A players. Our annual tournament (December 8 - 11, 2022) and bi-weekly bingos (beginning in May 2023) are examples of ways to fulfill your bond, and other fundraising opportunities arise during the season.
