Any changes to your team roster (including player pickup requests) must be on the
Team Adjustment Form (TAF) from Ringette BC and submitted to
krasweetheart@gmail.com by January 19, 2024. As this is a RBC sanctioned tournament, RBC must approve these changes in order for your adjusted roster to play at the Tournament. Should your team make any unapproved (RBC) changes to the roster during the tournament, it may mean that your team will FORFEIT that game, regardless of the game outcome.
For U12 teams, RBC requires that a team ordinal be provided and should you have to substitute players, an adjusted team ordinal must be provided. Any U12 tiered team from out of province will require special attention that the Ringette BC office can assist with.
