Meet NCCP Competition Development Ringette coach Cathy Lipsett who shares her thoughts on coaching Ringette at the BC Winter Games and Canada Winter Games.

Seven athletes from B.C.’s north combined for a total of 10 medals during week one of the 2015 Canada Winter Games, helping propel Team BC into third place in the medal standings, with a total of 41 at the mid-point of the Games. 

Team BC’s ringette captain Angela Cichos has never experienced anything like the 2015 Canada Winter Games. 

The 18-year-old Port Coquitlam player has competed in countless high-stakes tournaments and difficult games but has never felt the same level of support that took place over the course of the week’s competition.

“It was amazing and I loved it,” she said. “The first couple of days got us really pumped and excited. First with the Team BC pep rally and then the opening ceremonies. And then all the support we got on the ice topped it all off.”

Team BC defeated Team Saskatchewan today 7-6 in a trilling overtime game.  The team will play for fifth place tomorrow.

An unfortunate loss to Team Manitoba in ringette ends in Team BC playing for a fifth place finish.

Both Team Saskatchewan and Team Alberta came out ahead of Team BC today in ringette.  However, the girls are looking to get back into their groove for the quarterfinals.

Team BC evens it up in pool play with 7-4 win over Team PEI. 

In their first game, Team BC had a hard fought battle with Team Nova Scotia but lost in overtime 4-3.

BC Ringette announced today the athletes that have been successful in securing a spot on Team BC for the 2015 Canada Winter Games. 

Team BC added six medals to its total Sunday, along with several top finishes on the second day of competition at the Canada Winter Games.
