Coach Mentoring Program

Calgary has some of the most experienced ringette coaches in the country. This is an opportunity for coaches at the quadrant level to learn from some of our AA coaches and perhaps to pick up some great drills that will benefit their team.
Please note: If coaches are interested in attending a AA practice, please contact the particular coach to ensure the timing is OK. Do not just show up.
