Flex Ringette Survey
Ringette Calgary is conducting a survey to gauge interest in a Flex Ringette Program for 2019-20.
The Flex program would generally look like this:
- Open to U16 and U19 players
- Cost is approximately half that of Classic ringette
- Could be 2 – 8 week sessions or one full season (Oct-Mar)
- One game per week, consistent schedule
- No practices, no tournaments
- Players can choose either Classic ringette (play in league, go to tournaments, provincials etc) or Flex. Not both. This is not for extra development.
To participate in the survey please visit this link. Deadline is April 10th.

*All registered participants for any Calgary Come Try Ringette event will automatically be entered into a draw for an opportunity to participate in a WinSport Ringette Camp. Camps are valued at $479, and the winner can attend either a Summer or Winter Camp.
The draw prize has been donated in memory of Jenna Sauer. Jenna was a Ringette and Skating instructor at WinSport, and a member of the Calgary Ringette community for 12 years as a player, coach, and official, until her untimely passing at the age of 18 from Ovarian Cancer. A Memorial Fund was established in Jenna’s memory, and her wish was to pass on a legacy of giving for causes that she was passionate about. Jenna’s family is proud to donate to the Come Try Ringette events, as a way to encourage more young girls to participate in a sport that remains so prominent in their lives.
