Our goal is to ensure that every player has a spot on a team. Parents are strongly encouraged to register early to avoid disappointment! Tell your players to bring a friend, no experience is necessary for your child to join and become a ringette player. Its a better deal than skating lessons, your child will be up and skating immediately and will amaze you with their improvement after only a few practices. Join us and play the fastest game on ice!
Payments
NWVRA offers payment via credit card on the Ramp registration site.
Early bird payment options:
We have added an installment option as an incentive to register early. From June 1- July 15, installments can be made by paying $100 at registration and the remaining amount split between September 1 and Oct 1. Registration after July 15 will split the payments into two: 50% at registration and 50% on Oct 1.
Refund Policy
Refunds of registration fees before Labour Day will consist of your registration fee minus a $25 processing fee.
Refunds of registration fees after Labour Day will be allowed up until December 1st of each season and will consist of your registration fee minus 25% per month, plus a $25 processing fee.
For example:
- refund June 1-Sept 4 = 100% of registration fee - $25
- refund in Sept after Labour Day = 75% of registration fee - $25
- refund in Oct = 50% of registration fee - $25
- refund in Nov = 25% of registration fee - $25
All cancellation requests must be in writing and to the attention of the NWVRA Registrar at registrar@nwvra.ca.
Financial Assistance
In the case of financial hardship, there are programs such as Jumpstart and Kidsport available that will help subsidize the registration fees. These programs require applications, so please be in touch with these organizations and inform the Registrar and Treasurer if a subsidy is needed. These programs may not cover the entire portion of the registration fee. Families must pay the difference, please discuss with the Registrar and Treasurer.
In addition to the registration fees, there may be extra fees required throughout the season, as decided upon by the team. Teams may choose to participate in tournaments. These tournaments are not covered in the VRA registration fee. If financial help is needed to pay for these extra-curricular fees, please contact the VRA Registrar or VRA Treasurer.
