U10 (FUN 3) players are typically 8 & 9 years old and may have some ringette experience.

U10 is for children who demonstrate that they have acquired the physical, cognitive, and social readiness for more challenging play, this group plays full sized ringette. U10 builds on the basic fundamentals learned in FUN2. Players should be comfortable skating. Players new to skating, or still building skating confidence, should register in FUN1 / FUN2. The program is progressive in nature and is designed to build skating skills, spark curiosity of the rules of ringette, teamwork and love of the game.

• Skating forward and backward
• Stopping, starting, turning
• Shooting and passing
• New age appropriate ringette rules are introduced
  • Keeping score
  • Time keeping
• Basic ringette strategy
• Full ice games
• Tournaments

Ringette starts in September and ends in early March. U10s will have 1 practice and 1 game per week. U10 games are played against other U10 teams from the Lower Mainland Ringette League, with home games at NWVRA rinks and away games at the home rinks of other LMRL teams.  There is also the opportunity to participate in several tournament weekends throughout the season.  See Lower Mainland Ringette League for more information.
