Ringette is a Canadian game that was first introduced in 1963
in North Bay, Ontario. Developed originally for girls, ringette
is a fast-paced team sport on ice in which players use a
straight stick to pass, carry, and shoot a rubber ring to score
goals.

For ten years, play centered in Ontario and Quebec, however
the sport quickly spread accross Canada and is now played
in all ten provinces and the Northwest Territories.

In fact, the sport has become one of Canada's favorite
activities for females, with over 50,000 participants, including
players, coaches, officials and volunteers, across Canada - a
remarkable growth rate for such a young sport.

LONDON RINGETTE ROCKS !

Ringette - the fastest sport on ice - is a non-contact team sport
played by girls from Senior Kindergarten age up with both
house league and various competitive levels.  

Mandatory Ringette gear is similar to hockey gear, but the
helmet face mask is unique to Ringette with triangles in it.  
Players use a straight Ringette stick with a special end and
they pass a blue rubber ring on the ice.  

During regular play, each team has a centre, two forwards
(wingers for you hockey fans), two defence and a goalie on the
ice.  The game starts with a free pass from the free pass circle
at centre ice and the player in the circle has five seconds to
pass the ring outside the circle into play.  During play, the ring
has to be passed over the blue line and another player must
touch it before the passing player can touch it again.  It doesn’t
matter which team touches it first over the blue line, it just
cannot be the player who passed it.  

The Ringette rink has a red free play line at both ends of the
ice which marks the defensive and offensive zones on the ice.  
During regular play, each team may only have three skaters
plus the goalie in the end zone.

A Ringette game is generally organized in two halves of 15 to
20 minutes long, depending on the level of play.  The purpose
of the game is to score goals on the opposing team by passing
the Ringette ring amongst your teammates and keeping it from
the other team.  Because of the passing required at the blue
line, Ringette is a much more team-oriented sport and team
spirit, interaction and cooperation are fundamental elements of
Ringette.

The Ringette season generally runs from the end of September
when teams are formed until late March/ early April.  Ringette
registration fees include registration in the London Lynx
Tournament in November for Novice level players on up and for
a year end tournament for all players, date and location
dependant upon level of play.  There is no admission charge to
