Corydon CC runs an in-house league exclusively at River Heights Arena. The number of playersis restricted to manageable numbers (max of 12-13 players per team). Starting in lateSeptember, an initiation program of 8 sessions will be held to assist the players with somebasic skills. The season consists of 18 indoor games. Teams will practice once and sometimestwice a week, typically outdoors. We do encourage our teams to participate outside the club intournaments and exhibition games to prepare the players for traveling hockey and have theadded experience of playing new teams. When we assign teams, our top priority is equal skilllevel. We TRY to keep friends together, but there is NO guarantee this can be done. We onlyadjust for balance, not because a player wants to be with their friends. It is also HIGHLY

recommended that young skaters enroll in a Learn to Skate program. This league is basedon a non-competitive environment and good sportsmanship.

Players trying for AAA, AA or High Schoolmust also register for Corydon CC hockey toprevent problems related to having a placeto play if the player does not make the AAA,AA or High School team.

There will still be some grandfathering allowed for kids 14+ fromCrescentwood who wish to continue playing with their friends in FortGarry, they must however register at Corydon CC and be transferredor register directly with the Fort Garry Twins AA organization.

As a reminder, for traveling hockey, it is our goal at Corydon CC andwithin the APHA to have uniformity with respect to tryouts, teampractices and ice schedules. The APHA has adopted the HockeyHandbook as a guide for ALL teams within the APHA to follow forplayers, coaches, managers and parents. The hockey handbook canbe viewed on the APHA website www.aphamb.ca. Remember this isa reference guide not gospel.

For team formations, every effort is made to ensure Corydon CC andall clubs in the APHA follow a fair and equitable process. Rememberyou must register to tryout. If you choose to play in another programafter the number of teams in each category has been formed, we willonly refund half your money. This reason is simple; once the numberof teams has been formed we are committed to those numbers soany drop in players is catastrophic.

The traveling program is "grass roots" hockey, where participation,fair play and competitiveness are always the goal. Corydon CC sharesthe belief of equal playing time, playing in a respectful manner andhaving fun. Parents should also be respectful of the enormousamount of time and energy our coaches/managers dedicate both on& off the ice to run a successful team. If you haven't volunteered inthe past few years with a team please help out this year!Finally I would ask that everyone be mindful that thereferees are young and developing andlearning the game too. Without ourcurrent crop of returning refereeswe would not be able to play anygames. I trust that you willgive them the respect andconsideration theydeserve as if theywere your ownchild! Let's playsome hockey!

If your child does not want to try out for A1or A2 travelling hockey, declare the nexthighest level your child would like toparticipate at. Details regarding the try-outprocess will be available at the club.

Although the Corydon CC registration period

is September 3-13, please register your

ringette player by September 7th.

What Is Ringette?Ringette is a fast-paced team sport played on ice with a ring, stickand full protective equipment. A game consists of two 20-minuteperiods, taking an hour to complete.

Try Ringette for free!A great way to see if Ringette is the sport for you is to attend a Come Try Ringette event. Check out a date near you at www.cometryringette.com

What Makes Ringette Unique?Ringette encourages the rapid development of skating skills, anddemands that athletes apply concepts of teamwork and gamestrategy to succeed, in particular:

• Players must pass the ring over the blue line to a teammateevery time - promoting the involvement of all players.

• Skill, speed and strategy are what score goals - intentional andaggressive body contact is forbidden.

• Success depends on how well you and your teammates worktogether as only three players may attack or defend around thenet. Less crowding gives the skilled player space and reducesthe risk of injury.

• Only the goaltender is allowed in the crease. Featuring a biggercrease, scoring demands real skill.

• At the advanced levels, a team has 30 seconds from the timethey gain possession of the ring to take a shot on goal.

Who Plays Ringette?Originally invented to offer girls a team ice sport, Ringette has

developed into a true Sport for Life, involving all participants of allages and both genders. In Manitoba, Ringette is played from the ageof 5 through to Senior Ladies and at all levels from House League toAA Elite Players who compete for national championships.

The Kelvin Clippers have been fixtures at the River Heights Arena since 1996, and unless you are an earlyriser you are not likely to catch one of their workouts. The team whose dressing room is built into the RHarena complex, does most of it's practicing before class at around 7:30 a.m. This regimen, althoughunpopular with teenagers, requires dedication and commitment which is obvious by the intensity of theirpractices. The team plays in the "A" (Platinum) division of the Winnipeg High School Hockey League, andhas consistently remained at that level of competition. Full statistical information is available on thewebsite: http://www.whshl.com/

High School hockey in Manitoba is quickly becoming the preferred choice for players and parents becauseof its focus on academics, the ability to play with school mates before local crowds, and preferred ice times.The WHSHL plays the majority of its games between 4 and 6 p.m. on weekdays, which leaves theweekends free for work and school assignments.

The team appreciates all the support it receives from the staff and the community at large. Kelvin Boys playtheir home games most Wednesdays at 4:15 and the Kelvin girls play most Mondays at 4:00. Come on

down to the home of the Clippers, support our local high school teams and watch some fast-pacedaction.
