Welcome to the 2023 World Ringette Championships.

The world is coming to Calgary for the 2023 WRCs to present a celebration of the 60th Anniversary of Ringette and showcase the fastest game on ice.

The 2023 WRCs will play host to the U21 Junior World Championship and the President’s Pool World Championship, as well as showcase a U18 International Development Festival and Ringette Canada’s annual U17 La Releve camp. Over 350 athletes, coaches, and officials will be part of the thrilling action.

This October, the best of the best will gather at WinSport's Event Centre to compete in the World Ringette Championships. This event features the fastest, most prestigious, and most exciting ringette the world has to offer. This elite event seeks to promote ringette on the world scene as well as sisterhood and camaraderie between nations.

The World Ringette Championship (WRC) is the premiere international event for the sport. The first WRC was held in 1990 in Gloucester, Ontario and the event continues to inspire players around the world to strive for excellence.

Held every two years in participating countries, the WRC gives players the chance to shine on an international level. The excitement in the arena is palpable as teams from six countries compete for the title of world champion. Competing nations include Canada, Finland, USA, Sweden, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. The sport of Ringette was invented in 1963 by Sam Jacks in North Bay, Ontario. In the 60 years since its inception, Ringette has grown in popularity across Canada and internationally to countries such as Finland, Sweden, France, Czech Republic, the United States, and beyond.

The competition is divided into three separate categories: Senior Division, Junior Division, and President's Pool. Senior teams compete for the coveted Sam Jacks Trophy. Winners of the Junior and President's Pool categories are awarded the Juuso Wahlsten Trophy and President's Pool Trophy, respectively.
