Rep Tryouts

Updated March 11th, 2025

KRA has been approved to host rep team tryouts at the U14A, U16A, and U19A level. We will host tryouts for these teams and final team formation will depend on sufficient numbers of A calibre players.

We are working with Waterloo Ringette Association (WRA) and Guelph Ringette Association (GRA) to jointly host AA teams at the U14, U16, and U19 levels. The U14AA team will be based in Guelph, U16AA team based in Waterloo, and U19AA team based in Kitchener. The head coaches for each of these teams will be selected by a joint committee from KRA, WRA, and GRA. Each association will also have representatives at tryouts to assist in player evaluation.

More information on tryout dates will be coming soon.

What Is Provincial Level Ringette?

AA and A levels (U14 to U19) are the competitive tiers of ringette, where players compete against teams from South Western Ontario and the GTA in the Great Lakes Ringette League.

AA Teams: Fewer in number, with more frequent and farther travel.
A Teams: Similar travel but more opportunities for games closer to home.
Commitment: Higher expectations, both in time and financial investment, compared to B and C levels.

During tryouts, coaches will outline the commitment required and may ask families of selected players to sign an agreement indicating their readiness to meet these expectations.

Tryout Process in a Nutshell:

Submit Your Intent: The Intent-to-Tryout Form is posted here.
Register and Pay for Tryouts: Once team tryout details are finalized, KRA will post tryout schedules and fees on our website. www.kitchenerringette.com
Attend Tryouts: Players may try out for multiple associations (fees apply per association), but must follow the Closest Association Matrix rules.
