About the U8 House League/Learn to Play Program
This program is an extension of our LTS program for skaters 5-7 years old (DOB 2010 -2012), or for those with moderate skating experience.
Skaters will use the skating skills learned in the LTS program, in addition to skills taught in Learn to Play, and begin playing ringette.
The focus of this program is:
- to learn the basics of playing ringette
- to develop skating, motor skills and self-esteem
- to introduce players to team work and team spirit
