Q: Do I provide my own skates?

A: YES! Head to our EQUIPMENT page for more info on what you need!

Q: Where can I register?

A: Please head to OUR PROGRAMS to see what programs might fit your child's ability. Then click on REGISTRATION to register your skater.

Q: I want to plan ahead, are there dates to mark?

YES! Head to our CALENDAR for all important dates.

Q: Why didn't my child get a report card? 

A: We don't provide report cards for less than 6 attended classes. This allows the majority of skaters the time to develop further in their skillset. 

Q: Do I have to wear a helmet?

A: Yes. A CSA-CERTIFIED HOCKEY HELMET is required for everyone participating in our Learn To Skate programs (PreCanSkate, CanSkate, Junior Academy, Star Prep, Special Olympic). 

Q: I see kids wearing the fluffy headbands.  When can my skater wear that?

A: Once your skater has passed the Stage 5 CanSkate level, then it is the choice of the parent/skater if they want to continue wearing the helmet.  Another alternative for when you reach this level is an Ice Halo.  Purchased at: Ice Halo, click to go directly to the page.

Q: I already paid the Skate Canada number, why am I paying again?

A: The Skate Canada membership is paid annually in September. All skaters and coaches of Skate Canada sanctioned clubs are required to pay membership annually.

Q: My skater is missing a class, can I make it up or get a refund for the class missed?

A: Our program is a pre-registered program, not a drop-in program. All classes are non-refundable.
