MOUTHGUARDS MANDATORY
At the 2010 Guelph Ringette Association Annual General Meeting a motion was put forward and after significant discusion was overwhelmingly passed that mouthguards will be mandatory for all Guelph players for those age groups U19 and under effective for the 2010/2011 season. Therefore Guelph players will not be allowed to pracice or play in games without a mouthguard similiar to all other mandatory equipment requirements. The GRA is hoping to host or work together with other Community Organizations to have a mouthguard clinic in late August or early September. Note this new policy only relates to players playing and registered for Guelph teams.

REGISTRATION FOR THE 2010/2011 SEASON IS NOW OPEN
Registration for the upcoming season is now open. As in the past we have teamed up with ITSportsNet to bring you the convenience of online registration and registration fees can again be paid by Credit Card or Cheque.
