Equipment Requirements

Ringette Pants - effective 2024-2025 season and going forward:

Players in U10 Step 3 and up are required to purchase their own St.Albert Ringette Association Pants to wear in games. Game Pants can be purchased through the SARA Apparel Store.

Game Pants must not look worn, faded or have noticeable rips or tears. Pants with another association colours/logos or plain black practice pants are not permitted in league games. Players are required to have separate pants for practice.

Player is U10 Step 1 and 2 are required to purchase plain black pants to wear in games and tournaments. You can purchase the St. Albert Ringette Association Pants but are not required too.

We recommend purchasing pants in the early summer (or late spring) for the following season to allow adequate time for pants to arrive if they need to be ordered.

Please also visit the St.Albert Ringette Sell & Swap page on Facebook for the opportunity to purchase used equipment from the ringette community.

When purchasing ringette equipment, consider these two important details:

Make certain the player is adequately protected
The fitting should allow freedom of movement so the player can properly perform the necessary skills and enjoy the game.

A complete set of ringette equipment can be purchased for a reasonable cost. There are many discount sports stores in the St. Albert (and Greater Edmonton Area) that buy and sell used equipment. Please keep in mind that the equipment must fit properly to provide maximum protection.
