Get A Junior Coach!

It is recommended that all team, especially U14 and younger, find a Junior Coach.

Contact your local association and let them know you’re interested in having a Junior Coach join your team. 

Please keep this in mind when you are adding a Jr. Coach to your team:

Junior Coaches have a ton of experience relevant not only to ringette but to team-building and are often able to relate much more easily to your athletes than you can.

They are role models and future coaches.

As head and assistant coaches, part of your responsibility is to mentor them.

Include them on decision-making, and ask for their input and ideas both on and off the ice.

Some will take more encouragement than others to speak up, but they’re there because they love ringette and want to share it.

Please do NOT reduce them to pylon-pushers, they have so much more to offer. Ask them to run a drill/game in practice.

Fun Tip: Take your team to watch the Jr.Coach play. Your kids can make posters to cheer on their junior coach! This is a great learning opportunity and fun for all.
