• Tryout locations may include: Huntington Hills, Great Plains, NESS
• Separate tryouts will be held for U14AA, U16AA and U19AA divisions.
• For U14AA, we welcome all athletes interested in our program and tryout process.
• At the U16AA and U19AA levels, out of respect for our tryout process, athletes should only attend tryouts if they are fully ready to commit to the AA Ringette program.
• Shoulder pads are mandatory for all minor U19 and below age divisions as of August 2024.  Athletes without shoulder pads will not be allowed on the ice for their tryout.  For more information, please Ringette Calgary's Mandatory Shoulder Pad Policy.
• Please remember to also register with your local / home ringette community association for the upcoming season.

TEAM FORMATION

For the upcoming season, AA Ringette Calgary will be forming teams to meet the AA program goals and deliver a rich experience for our athletes. Team sizes are pending approval of Ringette Calgary but are also subject to change based on the number of registrants and tryouts. We will post our approved team sizes and goalie numbers as soon as we receive confirmation.

SCHEDULING OF TRYOUT SESSIONS (ICE TIMES)

After tryout registrations are closed and just prior to the start of tryout sessions, ice times will be emailed to you by the Head Coaches from your division. Once posted, please refer to our tryout schedule for dates, times, and locations. NOTE: The schedule is subject to change, so please check back regularly.

TRYOUT FORMAT

• During tryout sessions, players will participate in drills and scrimmages, and are given equal opportunity to demonstrate their skills in skating, ring control, ringette sense, knowledge of the game, competitive drive, and sportsmanship. All players will perform the same drills.
• Following the initial round of ice times, prospective AA athletes will be selected to move forward to the next tryout round and their names will be posted on our website. Refer to the tryout schedule above for the number of ice times.
• Final team selection will occur by draft and the team rosters will be posted on our website.
• If a player misses tryouts because of illness, injury, or family emergency, but still wishes to be eligible for selection, please review and complete the Medical Exemption from Tryouts - Policy and Form prior to the start of tryout sessions.

DIVISION COORDINATORS

There will be some opportunity to ask questions of Division Coordinators and Calgary AA Ringette personnel during tryouts. Division Coordinators will be available at the arenas. We respectfully request that questions be directed to the Division Coordinators and not the Coaches or Evaluators during this process.

AA Ringette Calgary will host a parent meeting for U14AA and for U16AA & U19AA prior to tryouts.  Watch for dates to be posted. In the meantime, please click one of the links below to watch a recording of the sessions from last season.
