Welcome to U-8 Team Trainor
2017-11-02 - U8 Team TrainorHello Parents/Caregivers,
Welcome to Team Trainor! The three U-8 ringette teams have been finalized and I will be coaching your daughter this year.
Our next ice time is Saturday, November 4 @ CARI A @ 9:45. Please try to have your daughter dressed 10 minutes early so I can pass out jerseys. After the practice, there will be a short parents meeting in the dressing room. We will discuss the following items at the meeting, but I wanted to give you some time to think about things,
1.) Additional help - An assistant coach and a one or two managers are needed for the team. The manager(s) would be responsible for organizing social activities, sending emails and collecting money etc. Also, there needs to be a female on the bench for games. All adults on the bench are required to have a recent criminal reference check completed.
2.) Team fees - To cover the cost of tournament fees and social activities, additional fees will be required. Once a manager is in place, a team budget will follow.
3.) Tournaments - The team will participate in three tournaments and a year-end jamboree.
Year-end jamboree - one day in March 2018 (date to be confirmed).
4.) Resources - The Charlottetown Ringette Association website http://charlottetownringette.com/ is a great resource and the team schedule will be posted under the U-8 Team Trainor section. I strongly encourage you to bookmark the site and subscribe to the schedule.
If you are new to ringette, you can learn about the basic concepts here http://www.ringette.ca/our-sport/basics-of-ringette/
The social aspect of ringette is really important, especially with this age group. We will have a gathering in the near future so the girls can get to know one another and select a team name.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to drop me a line. See you on Saturday.
Thanks,
Trevor Trainor
