new children go out on the ice.
Occasionally, due
to lack of skating ability, a child may be asked to leave the practice
early.
We can loan out
skates, hockey equipment and sticks for the trial but you must bring your own
underwear (long sleeve, long underwear and socks) to wear under the equipment.
Jingu cannot be
responsible for any injury during the trial practice.
After the trial
practice, the staff will decide whether your child will be able to join. All players 5th grade or older,
must have had hockey experience.
2) Registration
After your child’s
skating abilities have been checked by a member of the staff and you decide to
join the team, you must fill out the registration form which is on the website.
