What’s included
Our fees are inclusive of all Ringette Ontario Fees for registration. Fees include ice time for practice and games. We practice and play in both the St.Thomas Memorial and Joe Thornton Rinks here in St. Thomas.
In previous years our U10-U19 Teams were on ice 2-3 times per week. We also run dry land training encompassing physical fitness, stretching and healthy lifestyle. We also conducted some player development by booking power skating sessions for our teams. The fees also cover the registration for the Ringette Regional Tournament held in late March early April and our year end banquet.
The fees do not cover optional tournaments. Where possible teams conduct some fundraising activities to off set these tournament costs.
Bond Cheque
All players are required to provide a $200 bond cheque post dated to MARCH 31 2025. Bond cheques will be collected at the player’s first ice-time in the Fall (or prior to players being on ice). Parents and/or players are asked to complete 8 hours of volunteer time throughout the seasons by helping with bingos, scoreboard, and time clocks or volunteer on the Board. There are numerous opportunities that require volunteers. Provided that the volunteer hours are met, bond cheques will be returned end of season.
Travel to games
Thunder Ringette plays others teams from around South Western Ontario. Travel to towns such as Exeter, Godrich, St.Marys, London, Tilsonburg, Kitchener and Waterloo for games is required. Most of these games are on Saturday or Sunday but we do have an occasional week day game. While we are sure you will want to watch the game, sometimes other commitments get in the way, arranging car pool with other Thunder families is encouraged.
RESPECT IN SPORT
Ringette Ontario requires one parent for every player under 18 to complete a course on Respect in Sport. If you need difficulty accessing this course please contact the registrar. The course is offered online takes approximately 2 hours to complete at a cost of $13. Once complete you will get a certificate and the certificate number is to be added to yours and your players RAMP profile.
