Gym Ringette
A safe, inclusive way to enjoy ringette year-round
Did you know that ringette can also be played as a "dry land" sport?
Many of the fun and challenging elements of ringette transfer well to the gym floor. Gym ringette can be played as an activity on its own or to complement on ice training.
Players of all ages and abilities are able to develop strength, balance, coordination and agility while enjoying healthy competition.
The main advantages of gym ringette are that it is a safe, low cost, inclusive activity that can be played year-round.
Guidance for teachers
The Gym Ringette program focuses on providing a quality sport experience for participants. Quality sport experiences are fun, positive, safe and inclusive, and key to keeping youth engaged in sport and physical activity.
Our Gym Ringette Teacher Manual focuses on using the Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) approach. With this approach, we use learner-centred and problem-solving activities to teach gym ringette skills.
Move Think Learn - Ringette in Focus
Helping kids develop tactical skills while having fun
The Move Think Learn series supports teachers and physical activity leaders working with children in grades four to nine.
In partnership with the associated National Sport Organizations, the Move Think Learn series offers a Ringette in Focus program.
Ringette in Focus helps children gain movement and tactical thinking skills as they play ringette. These skills can then be transferred to other activities and sports.
The goal of this program is to help children develop knowledge, confidence, and competence through a fun and inclusive activity.
