When purchasing ringette equipment, consider these two important details:
A complete set of ringette equipment can be purchased for a relatively reasonable cost. Shop around for the best values: you do not need to buy the most expensive equipment. For example, the Mississauga Ringette Association offers an Equipment Rental Program for new players . There are also many discount sports stores in the Mississauga/ Milton/ Brampton area that buy and sell used equipment. Just keep in mind that the equipment must fit properly to provide maximum protection.
MANDATORY EQUIPMENT
PLEASE NOTE: when choosing outer equipment, you might want to keep in mind that the MRA colours are navy blue and gold.
FOR THE GOALKEEPER Special equipment is necessary for the goalkeeper, such as: gloves (catching and stick), chest and stomach protector, goalie skates (with protective shell), leg pads, shoulder and arm protectors. The goaltender's equipment is especially important, so seek advice from a knowledgeable source.
SOME TIPS AND COMMENTS :
•Keep your equipment DRY! This is the most important thing you can do to extend the life of your ringette equipment. Particular attention should be placed on skates and gloves as these items receive the most damage from excess moisture.
•Use skate guards only when transporting your skates. Most skate guards have a tendency to collect moisture which can cause your skate blades to rust.
•To prevent rust build-up in your helmet loosen and re-tighten screws about once a month.
•To clean clear plastic face shields (e.g. Itech or Cooper Shields) use mild non-abrasive detergent such as dish soap and soft cloth, or Itech approved cleaners only.
•Most ringette protective equipment can be washed if the following precautions are taken:
•To lessen wear and tape ball-up on goal sticks, tape stick twice. For bottom layer use black tape toe to heel and for upper layer use black or white tape heel to toe.
•To lessen friction between goal stick and stick glove, sand shaft with fine sandpaper or emery cloth, and rub in a light layer of floor paste wax.
•To lessen goal stick vibration at index finger; add 2 wraps of tape 2" down from top of paddle.
•All goalies should keep a small screwdriver and spare buckles and toe straps for emergency repairs
