Skater Requirements
CanSkate
Skaters must be at least three (3) years of age and be able to participate independently. They must provide their own skates and a CSA-approved hockey helmet.
Parents and caregivers are required to remain at the rink during their skater’s lesson so that they can meet their skater at the rink entrance when they come off the ice. This includes accompanying your skater to use the restroom as volunteers and coaches are not permitted in the washrooms with the skater.
Figure Skating (STARSkate)
Registration for Junior Academy (Advanced CanSkate, Future Star and Rising Star), Junior Star and Senior Star and Adult Junior and Star require approval from RPFSC’s Director of Skating before registering. Placement levels are emailed to skaters before registration.
Not sure what to register for?
You may book a skating assessment to determine the most appropriate placement prior to registering. A $20 assessment fee is required at the time of booking. This fee is non-refundable but will be credited to your account and can be applied toward registration fees once you register.
