Lucas has been on many of my daughters teams over the last 4 years and they have competed multiple times in QC, in ON and all throughout NB.

I also have a male goalie/player, he will outgrow B soon I suspect and would like to be tiered appropriately in the future. Also we support all male players in any capacity they want to play!

All athletes should be able to compete in their sport at the highest level they qualify for. My son and daughter BOTH play BOTH hockey and ringette as goalies in Alberta.

I had the privilege to coach Lucas last year and he turned into one of my favorite kids I've ever coached. Lucas is an amazing goalie who puts his heart and soul into this sport. Even though he is a boy, those girls included him in everything, and he was always hanging out with them. We NEVER had an issue because of his gender. This boy is one of the sweetest kids you would ever meet and has a heart of gold. Male or not, this kid deserves to play. I support Lucas.

Kids need to have fun and be included in sports no matter the gender.

Lucas wants the opportunity to continue playing the sport he's passionate about. It is incredibly disappointing to see a child potentially lose that opportunity when there is no equivalent male division available to him. Youth sport should be about creating opportunities for kids to participate, develop, compete and feel like they belong. I strongly believe Lucas deserves the same opportunity as his teammates to play the sport he loves.

We need to support female and male if they want to play any sports that is including ringette. This young guy played for many years as a goalkeeper, and because he’s advancing to U14, they want accept him because he’s a male , unacceptable in today’s society .please consider removing this rule in the association !!
