What’s included
Our fees are inclusive of all Ringette Ontario Fees for registration and insurance. 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. Practices at Rinks outside St.Thomas may occur as we explore options for more ice time in our neighbouring communities.
In previous years our FUN3-U19 Teams were on ice 2-3 times per week. We also conduct on ice 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 2027. Bond cheques will be collected before the player’s first ice-time. Parents and/or players are required to complete 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. The number of hours required differ depending on the division level of the player.
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 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.
Ringette players in older age groups U16+ may have to travel further for away games.
