Prince George Ringette Association

2008/2009 Season


2008/2009 Season started with the "Power Skating Enhancement" program offered to all age divisions from the Bunnies to Masters. The season’s regular practice ice is offered at the Coliseum every day of the week and on a rotation schedule on Saturdays.
Prince George is one of seven communities province-wide that hosted a "Coaching Conference" during the CABC celebration week (September 20-27). Coaches of athletes at all levels, ranging from the recreational participant to Olympic level competitors, were invited to attend the day-long conference which was offered at no cost through the support of Spectra Energy. One of our own "Madeleine Crandell" was a recipient of the CABC "Certificate of Apprecation" in recognition of valuable contributions to Coaching in British Columbia.
Four Prince George teams (two Petites, Tweens and Juniors) travelled to the first northern league tournament of the year in Terrace during the weekend of October 17-19. Click here to view media coverage. Click here to view pictures of some of our local players in action.
Our first "Come Try  Ringette" event was a success with over 40 kids participating in the activities organized during October 24th Pro-D Day for the students.
The 17th Annual Joy Hoffman Memorial Tournament (November 7, 8 , 9) had 30 teams playing in a 54 games schedule with teams from Quesnel, Prince George, Houston and Terrace in all age divisions. Click here to view results of the tournament and a few pictures taken by some parents.
