Have a Practice Run by NRL/National Team Players NATIONAL RINGETTE LEAGUE OTTAWA ICE 2014 NATIONAL RINGETTE LEAGUE CHAMPIONS Development Package 2015-2016 Inside the National Ringette League The National Ringette League (NRL) was founded in 2002 and began play in 2003-2004. The league was started to create a truly national landscape to promote the sport of Ringette and allow for the best players in the country to compete against each other. The league is comprised of 14 teams, broken down into East and West Conferences. Over 300 of Canada’s elite female athletes play in this league, including all of the members of Team Canada, the Silver Medalists at the World Championships in 2014. The age of the players in the league ranges from 18 to 34. The objectives of the NRL are to move Ringette into the mainstream of Canadian sports, encourage greater public awareness of Ringette, create more and better competitive opportunities for athletes, and achieve positive financial results at both a league and team level. The NRL functions as a committee under Ringette Canada, the national governing body of Ringette in Canada. Teams participating the 2013-2014 NRL season include: Western Conference – Calgary RATH and Edmonton WAM! and Lower Mainland Thunder. Eastern Conference – Red Division: Cambridge Turbos, Gatineau Fusion, Gloucester Devils, Ottawa Ice, Richmond Hill Lightning and Waterloo Wildfire; White Division: Atlantic Attack, Lac St Louis Adrenaline, Le Royal de Bourassa, Montreal Mission and Rive Sud Revolution.

HISTORY OF RINGETTE Ringette is a unique winter team sport developed in 1963, by the late Mr. Sam Jacks, Director of Parks & Recreation of North Bay, Ontario. Originally designed to be a unique winter team sport for girls and an alternative to hockey, ringette has evolved into a fast paced, exciting sport that combines the speed of hockey with the strategy of basketball or lacrosse. The first game played in Espanola, Ontario, was nothing like the sport of today. First introduced in Sherwood Park, Alberta in 1974. Sherwood Park was the first community in Alberta to introduce ringette and has since never looked back. Ringette is now considered an international sport with participating teams from Canada, Finland, Sweden, Germany, Czechoslovakia and the United States competing in the World Ringette Championships held every two year.
