President - Maryanne Clark

Ringette has been part of my life since 1980. It came to my home town a bit late for me, but I followed my younger sister and became very passionate about the game.

My youngest daughter started playing in 1998, and since then I have gone from manager, to coach, to board positions with St.James, WRL and the MRA.

Life would be very dull if I didn't have ringette in it

Vice President Administration - Rick Grayson

Our Current vice-president, having been born in the founding year of this sport, was ordained by a higher power (his wife) to serve the ringette community. Yielding to this power he has served many posts in the Interlake up to and including president, was on the Magic board, currently serves as U14 AA convenor and VP of the MRA. About the only thing he doesn't do is ref and windows.

" never leave an AGM early,.... especially if your wife stays behind!"

High Performance - Alison Jones

As most parents involved with any sport it is because of our children. In 1995, I was the Novice convenor at Varisty View Community Club. From there I moved up the “ranks” and became Chair for Ringette, in a largely “hockey” community. Those few years you could always find me at the rink tying skates or fighting with the hockey dads. Fortunately I had a great group of parents who always had my back!! From there I went to be APFG President, which I enjoyed thoroughly!! Thanks to my daughters great success in the sport of Ringette I have been able to travel. I am of great belief that Ringette is the “fastest game on ice”. I am currently the High Performance Chair for Ringette in Manitoba.

Coaching - Tracy Peacock

I first became involved in Ringette when my mom tried to find a sport in the River East area for me to play rather than hockey with all the boys in my neighbourhood.Ringette was just being introduced to our area and I was on one of the first teams.

I am currently on the River East board as the convenor of North Kildonan. I had also held the position as the Coaching Director and Player Development on our local association and havebeen on the board for 20+ years.

All levels from B, A, AA and a Provincial Open team. I have been fortunate to coach teams thathave been successful League, City and Provincial Champions numerous times and Silver and Bronzemedal at the Canadian Ringette Championships.

I played Ringette from the time it first started in River East area until the time that coaching my daughters' team was more rewarding. As a player I was fortunate to attend 15 Canadian Ringette Championshipsand be on 6 successful National Championship teams.

I also was an official and a Player Development Instructor while I played Ringette and was the Technical Director for the Manitoba Ringette Association.

As the Director of Coaching I would like to provide more information and support for our coaches in Manitobato help them be (and become) the best coach for all our players. It is important to give them the resources to achieve their goals as a coach. The MRA will look into; hosting a coaching seminar; once againhost the 'coach the coach program'; provide a program and format for coaches to share ideas and informationand also other intiatives that will be posted on the 'new' website.

He currently holds positions on the Selkirk Ringette Board (Treasurer), Interlake Ringette Association (Publicity), Magic AA (Chair) and Manitoba Ringette Association (Publicity). He has also dabbled in coaching and enjoys that aspect of his volunteer time the most, interacting with the players themselves.

Games & Tournaments - Al Tomiuk

AL was introduced to the sport of Ringette for the first time in 2001 when his daughter started playing. Currently she is in her second year playing "AA" at the U-16 level. He has severed on several different sporting committee's before joining the Board of Director's with the MRA. He spent his first year as Rural/Urban Development Director before taking over the Games & Tournament Position.
