August 30-31, 2025

FORTY years of playing ringette in Vancouver and we are celebrating with a fun U10/U12 tournament. This will follow on from a week of development for coaches, Officials and players!

Each player will get 4 games minimum for the insanely low price of $50. VRA Summer Camp is subsidizing this event to promote a cross association bit of fun. When they all start playing in the upcoming season these kids will know each other and expand our community.

There will be a bare bones event (hence the price) but top banana awards will be given to hard working teammates. Hopefully everyone likes bananas lol.

Goalies playing 2+ games will receive a VRA goalie patch and they may be able to play for multiple teams to get more games if we’re running short. Equipment for goalies will be provided by VRA if needed.

Teams of individuals born 2014 to 2018 will be created based on individual registrations. Since teams will be mixed we need to know a bit about your players such as positions preferred (at least 2), number of years playing ringette and skating and how many goals they made last season (estimated). We will try to group some friends together but part of the goal for this tournament is to meet new people so we hope everyone is open to that.

Players registered for the 2024 season are welcome to register without paying insurance but those who did not register for the 2024/25 ringette season will have to pay an additional insurance fee.

Camp is run by VRA players who have attended camp and are committed to making this a fun experience for all the kids. It is a great way for FUN2 to U16 aged players to get back on the ice before the season and this year it’s going to be even better as we are ending the camp with a U10/U12 weekend tournament (additional fee and registration required).

Camp will be at Trout Lake with the following ice times to start the day.
7:45am FUN2
8:30am U10
9:30am U12 and U14/U16

Participants will be grouped into the division they play in the upcoming season though adjustments may be made as needed based on registrations. U10, U12 and U14/U16 have 8 hours at camp with 3 ice times for skills, skating and scrimmages every day. Off ice is time to play board games, crafts, outdoor sports, strategy and a special event (in the past we’ve had bubbleball, archery, waterfights, roller skating). Camp ends with a free skate and pizza party on the Friday.

We look forward to getting players from around the LMRL joining us. Questions can be directed to VRASummerCamp@gmail.com or 604 765 8650. In all communications it’s helpful to include full player name and division.

Players will sharpen their ringette skills this summer over sessions of skills development and power skating!

The skills portion of this camp focuses on smart decision-making, man on coverage, and confident execution to help players elevate their performance in every zone.  Dynamic on-ice activities will boost players’ passing, shooting, agility, and game awareness. 

Power skating sessions will be run by Whitney Juszkiewicz, the award-winning coach and founder of Fire & Ice Hockey Development.  With years of experience coaching athletes across Canada and a reputation for high-energy, skill-based instruction, Whitney helps players build confidence and speed on the ice. These sessions are perfect for players looking to take their skating to the next level by elevating edge control, stride power, and agility.

Dear VRA Families, 

Summer is the perfect time for committed athletes to elevate their skills and prepare for a strong start to the fall season. We’re kicking off our summer programming with two high-performance Elite Camps at Trout Lake, starting on Friday July 11, 2025 and then running on Sunday mornings: July 13, 20, 27, and August 10. 

We are thrilled to be partnering with Tracy Townsend of The Ringette Academy, a highly respected and experienced coach known for developing top-tier athletes. These camps are designed to challenge, refine, and inspire players who are serious about their development. 

We are offering two camps: 

• U14 Zone Prep Camp  9:15–10:30 AM 
  Tailored for athletes aiming to compete at the Zone level, this camp focuses on the skills, pace, and decision-making required to compete at a high level. This camp gives players the tools and confidence they need to stand out during evaluations. The first session is Friday July 11 at 6:30 PM

• Elite Camp for Male and Non-Binary Athletes  10:45 AM–12:00 PM 
  Geared toward competitive athletes ready to elevate their performance, this camp delivers high-tempo training focused on advanced skills, strategic decision-making, and playing with confidence in high-pressure situations.  This camp builds the skills, tools, and confidence athletes need to stand out and perform their best. The first session is Friday July 11 at 8:00 PM
   
   

Both camps offer the rare opportunity to train under elite-level coaching.

Calling all U12 to U19 goaltenders!

This spring, Vancouver Ringette is excited to host goalie training with Olympian and World Champion Kimberly Newell!

This weekly clinic, which runs from April to June, is designed to help goalies refine their technique, improve reaction time, and develop the mental toughness needed to thrive in high-pressure situations. Whether you’re looking to sharpen your angles, master rebound control, or strengthen your ability to read the play, this is a rare opportunity to train with one of the best in the game.

Train with an Olympian & World Champion

Kimberly Newell brings a wealth of elite experience to the ice, including:

• 2022 Olympian – Best save percentage (95.5%) of the entire tournament
• U18 World Champion with Team Canada – Named MVP and Best Goaltender
• WHL Champion & Goalie of the Year – Led the league with a 96.1% save percentage
• All-time winningest goaltender at Princeton University and holds the record for most career saves
• First female goalie to compete in the BCEHL U18 AAA boys’ league

Beyond her achievements as a player, Kimberly is an experienced and passionate coach. She is the co-owner of Empower Hockey, a high-performance goaltending school in Vancouver, and has trained elite athletes for years. Her coaching philosophy focuses on building versatility, strong fundamentals, and a high-level game IQ—helping goalies develop the confidence and skills to excel in any situation.

This exciting training opportunity will be held on Saturdays at Trout Lake from 5:15-6:15 p.m. on the following dates:

• April 5, 12
