2021-2022 Registration Fees
Welcome back to ringette! We expect that Covid-related restrictions will be lifted by the start of the 2021-2022 season, and that games and league play will return—although this must be confirmed by provincial health authorities and ViaSport BC before start of the season. We have lifted limits on registration numbers and team sizes.
| 2021-22 FEES | EARLY | REGULAR |
|---|---|---|
| Registration Dates: | June 1-July 31 | August 1-on |
| New Players (All levels) | $467 | $467 |
| Returning Players (FUNdamentals) | $467* | $467* |
| Returning Players (U10-U19) | $625 -$100 discount** | $665 -$100 discount** |
*FUNdamentals players, who do not play games outside the association, will have one practice each week. Depending on ice availability, additional skills-based sessions will be added within the season, to be covered through team fees.
**As an incentive to returning players and to recognize reduced ice times last season, we are providing a $100 discount on each registration of U10-U19 players who played with NWVRA in 2020-21. Thanks for sticking with us through the last challenging year.
Note that returning players earn a $50 credit for recruiting new players to join NWVRA! Just ask any new players you refer to list your name during online registration.
ICE SCHEDULES FOR 2021-2022
Closure of the Harry Jerome Rec Centre closing this November may impact NWVRA’s ice times for practices and games at Karen Magnussen and Canlan Ice Sports, although we are working hard to keep as many of our existing ice times as possible. We will post updated team schedules here as soon as possible.
This was our practice schedule for the 2020/21 season, for reference only. Game times vary on
Saturdays and Sundays.

REFUND POLICY
IF THE SEASON IS SHORTENED OR CANCELLED BY COVID AND NWVRA RECEIVES MONEY BACK FROM ICE RENTALS, WE WILL ATTEMPT TO PROVIDE A PRO-RATED REFUND TO FAMILIES. Otherwise, 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 January 1st of each season and will consist of your registration fee minus 25% per month and a $25 processing fee (so, a refund in Sept after Labour Day = 75% of registration fee - $25; a refund in Oct = 50% of registration fee - $25; a refund in Nov = 25% of registration fee - $25). All cancellation requests must be in writing and to the attention of the Registrar
