GCRA runs various ringette programs during the regular season (typically September to March). Players are registered based on birth year and desired level of play:

• NOVICE (U8, U9, U10)
• REGIONAL (U12-U19)
• COMPETITIVE (U12-U19)

Novice and Regional players take part in sortouts in September to help make the meaningful and/or balanced teams.

Those interested in Competitive ringette can participate in tryouts:

• U12 Competitive tryouts take place in September. 
• U14, U16, and U19 tryouts take place in the Spring.
