There
is an Ontario Ringette Association LTAD Standing Committee Meeting
April 17-18th, 2010.
From this will
come directions on how Ontario Ringette will proceed with the
LTAD implementation. The views that Eastern Region Representatives
will be taking forward are the following:
We support the U-12 Provincials becoming a separate event from
the other divisions. This will allow all three divisions of Provincial
U-12s to compete at the same event. There will also be off-ice
festivities in order to encourage the sense of community ringette
is renowned for. We do not support any other changes at the U-12
level for the 2010-2011 season.
We do not support any changes to the U-10 division for the 2010-2011
season.
We do support changes at the U-9 (Novice Rec) division such as
removing scores from all tournaments and replacing the final game
with an off-ice party. This was piloted in Nepean and was successful
and we believe that it promotes continuity in the region as there
are no scores posted at NCRRL games for U-9 anyway.
We will advise the ERRA membership of any LTAD updates via the
ERRA LTAD webpage after the ORA Board meeting on May 1-2.
If you have any concerns, please contact either Kim
Noxon (Athlete Development Coordinator) or Byron
Johnson (LTAD Representative).

Gloucester-Cumberland News!

Hi Folks, as your webmaster
I have been tardy in posting pictures and articles sent in by
proud parents and the Executive. We used to have an extensive
Teams Page here on the website. After having been nudged
in the right direction by our VP House League and a suggestion
by the Acting VP Competitive, I have created a new page called
"Bragging Rights". All Photos and articles that were
sent to me over the season have been added. Although it is now
well after the season if you have any photos or articles you
would like included, please send them along. They will rest
here for posterity. A link to the page is posted below.

Where in the World
are We
(On 1 Jan, 2001, Gloucester
& Cumberland became part of the New Mega City of Ottawa.)
Gloucester & Cumberland (and Ottawa) are located 200
km west of Montreal and 400 km east of Toronto.
We are very easy to find on any map of North America even
without Names. Find the Eastern end of Lake Ontario (Kingston);
look directly north to the Ottawa river, which coincidentally
is the Ontario-Quebec border. You'll see a little
squiggly line in the Ottawa River that looks like an off
kilter W... We're at the bottom of the right squiggle of
that W...
Easy eh?
