Welcome to Foothills Ringette

A Quick Guide for New Players

What is Ringette?

Ringette is a dynamic, non-contact team sport played on ice with a straight stick and rubber ring. Designed with an emphasis on teamwork, strategy, and speed, it's often called "the fastest game on ice." Unlike hockey, players must pass the ring over each blue line, encouraging constant collaboration and quick thinking. It's a fantastic sport for building skills, confidence, and friendships.

Our Story: Foothills Ringette Association (FRA)

Foothills Ringette began in the 2016-2017 season with just 13 athletes, practicing once a week and playing a few exhibition games — often outdoors in Black Diamond. Fast forward to today, FRA now proudly supports around 90 athletes from communities across the Foothills region. We are committed to empowering girls through sport, creating an inclusive environment, and building strong, confident athletes on and off the ice.

 We’re Also Looking for Amazing Volunteers!

Foothills Ringette runs on the energy and heart of our volunteers — and we’d love to have you on board. Whether you’re interested in becoming a:

  • Head Coach
  • Assistant Coach
  • Team Manager
  • On-ice Helper
    ...or simply looking to be more involved — there’s a place for you here!

Nervous about coaching? You’re not alone — and that’s okay.

Many parents hesitate to sign up because they feel they don’t know enough about ringette. But here’s the truth: every coach started exactly where you are. At FRA, we believe the most important qualities in a coach — especially at the younger levels — are positivity, enthusiasm, and a willingness to learn.

We’ll guide and support you every step of the way, whether you’re leading drills or just cheering players on from the bench. The ringette-specific knowledge will come with time — and you’ll be surprised how quickly you pick it up.

So if you're even a little curious about helping out, we encourage you to take that first step. Your support could make all the difference for a team — and it might just become one of the most rewarding experiences of your season.
