The city of Toronto has launched a pilot program for ringette on select rinks as part of its winter programming.
The growth in Schreder’s Etobicoke league has prompted a collaboration with the city’sthis year to bring a drop-in ringette pilot program to seven rinks across Toronto: Prince of Wales, Humber Valley, The West Mall, Wallace Emerson, Riverdale, Glen Long and McCowan District Park. Pre-enrollment is not required and participants will be able to borrow equipment from select locations.
Erin Wronecki, an executive member and trainer for Etobicoke league, said the sport has grown in popularity both because it is fast-paced — but especially because it is team-oriented. In ringette, at least two passes need to be made before taking a shot at the other team’s net, which therefore motivates teammates to work together to win.
Darren Pace, president of West Ferris Ringette Association in North Bay, said that although the lower cost is a plus, he believes the main attraction to ringette is the all-embracing nature of the sport.
