Governance
Working together to grow our sport
Just as the game of ringette requires teamwork, so too does its governance. The Ringette Canada Board of Directors helps deliver our vision of being the world leader in growing ringette.
The Board, which consists of nine elected members, is responsible for planning strategic direction for our sport. Members also work together to maintain the financial health of our organization and ensure that we're meeting all legal requirements.
