Canadian Ringette Championships (french: Championnats Canadien d'Ringuette) sometimes abbreviated CRC, is Canada's annual premiere national ringette tournament for the best ringette players and teams in the country. It encompasses three age/class divisions: Under-16 (U16), Under-19 (U19) and the seasonal championship for Canada's National Ringette League (NRL). The competition is usually held in the month of April. The first CRC was held in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1979.

In June of 2021, announced that Ringette Calgary, a city based ringette organization in the Canadian province of Alberta will host the next Canadian Ringette Championships from April 3-9, 2022.[1]

The National Ringette League playoffs are the knockout match, round robin and tournament for determining the champion for National Ringette League.

Overview[]

Jeanne Sauvé, Governor General of Canada, in 1984 with her husband Maurice Sauvé, in Ottawa Canada

The event is organized by Canada's national sporting organization for the sport of ringette called .[2] It should not be confused with the Canada Winter Games which is a separate national multi-sport event, though ringette is a part of the Canada Winter Games program.

The tournament serves two main important functions. The first is to organize several competitions for the best ringette teams from each of the different Canadian provinces from various competitive levels and determine the national ringette champions of Canada for the season. The second is to organize the final elite competition between qualifying teams from Canada's National Ringette League, (the highest level of the sport in Canada) and determine which elite ringette team is the best in Canada overall. The winning team from the National Ringette League championship is awarded the Jeanne Sauvé Memorial Cup. The tournament also serves as ground for those scouting for Canadian ringette talent, especially for those in the National Ringette League and those scouting for talent for both the junior and senior Canadian national ringette teams.

Divisions[]

There are three classes in this championship:

Canada U16 (Under 16)
Canada U19 (Under 19)
Canada National Ringette League (Semi-professional/showcase league)

Awards[]

The Canadian U16 champions are awarded the Ringette Canada Trophy.[3]

The Canadian U19 champions are awarded the Sam Jacks Trophy.[3] It was first awarded to the winning team at the Canadian Ringette Championships in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1979 and was donated by the city of North Bay, Ontario, the birthplace of ringette. It should not be confused with the Sam Jacks Trophy which is awarded to the world senior champions at the World Ringette Championships.

The National Ringette League champions are awarded the Jeanne Sauvé Memorial Cup in memory of the late Governor General of Canada.[3][4] In December of 1984, the trophy was first initiated as the Jeanne Sauvé Cup, then was first presented at the 1985 Canadian Ringette Championships in Dollard des Ormeaux, Québec. After Sauvé's death it was renamed the Jeanne Sauvé Memorial Cup.

History[]

The first championship was held in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1979. The elite National Ringette League (NRL) champions compete annually at the Canadian Ringette Championships at the end of the NRL season, an event which first began in 2004.
