ACTION REQUIRED PRIOR TO REGISTERING FOR TRYOUTS and WARM-UP SKATES:

ALL PLAYERS are being asked to review the Equal Opportunity for Participation Guidelines prior to registering for APRA Tryouts. The purpose of these Guidelines is to describe how individuals of all gender identities, and those who do not wish to gender identify or do not gender identify, are able to participate in our sport. Where there is demand, Clubs/Associations, Regions, and Leagues sanctioned by Ringette Ontario will attempt to offer A and AA level programming under the following Competition Categories:

• Girls/Women only ringette
• Boys/Men only ringette
• Mixed ringette (formerly known as Co-Ed)

During registration players will be asked to complete a declaration attesting to the Competition Category(s) of team(s) they are willing to play on during the 2024-25 season. As our sport evolves, there will be more boys/males interested in playing at the A/AA levels but we also respect that not all female athletes will want to play mixed ringette at this time. For this reason we want to ensure all members have a thorough understanding of the Equal Opportunity for Participation guidelines when answering the Competition Category question included on the registration form.

If you have any questions about the policy or how to complete the declaration, please contact the APRA President. 

ADVANCED REGISTRATION REQUIRED:

All players wishing to attend APRA tryouts and warm-up skates are required to register in advance through APRA's RAMP Registration System.
