2019 – 2020 Registration Information

Registration for the 2019-2020 season opens on May 15th, 2019. FVRA is the home association to all players living in Langley and Aldergrove. If you live outside of this area and have not played with FVRA for the past 3 consecutive seasons you need to register with your home association. Approval for cross-boundary registration must be granted by both the catchment association, FVRA and Ringette British Columbia before placement on FV roster. Please see Ringette BC – Player Release Policy for more information on player release policy.

Parents/guardians of players under 18 years of age must also fill in their contact information on Karelo (phone# & email address) in order to be registered as an adult member in the FVRA and have a vote at the association AGM.

Registration is completed online. Payment can be made via credit or debit cards and there are 2 payment options; (a) full payment at time of registration or (b) payments in 3 equal instalments (1st payment at time of registration, 2nd payment on July 15th, 3rd payment on August 15th). Full payment must be received prior to players first ice time/the start of the season.

Full Registration details can be seen here

Annual General Meeting, April 3rd – George Preston Rec Center – 7:00 pm

We would love to see you all there and we are going to try something new this year. At the past couple of AGMs we have given a $50 rebate to the first 30 families represented at the meeting and we will be doing the same again this year. In addition to the $50 rebate, we will also be raffling off one free registration for the 2019/20 season. Anyone who attends the meeting is eligible to win.

We have the adjoining meeting room available for parents to drop off their kids so they can attend the AGM. We will have older FVRA athletes there to entertain and supervise.

  • We have a number of Executive Board positions up for election this year including:
  • Vice President
  • Ice Scheduler
  • Equipment Manager
  • Secretary
  • Director of Evaluations
  • Director of Officials
  • Director of Ways and Means (Fundraising)
  • Registrar

If you’re looking for a way to give back to the sport you love please consider taking on one of these roles. It is very rewarding and a great opportunity to support our athletes. You can find information about what each role entails on the FVRA website. It is crucial to our success as an association to have people step into these roles. Our athletes rely on these volunteers to ensure they are able to continue playing the sport they love.

Please let me know if you have questions about any of the roles up for election and I will be happy to answer them.

Doors open at 6:30 with the meeting set to begin at 7:00. We will have light refreshments to enjoy also.

We hope to see you there!!
