STING REGISTRATION FEES

Each season, the Sturgeon Hockey Club Executive prepares and approves an operating budget for the Sting AA program to ensure we continue delivering an exceptional hockey experience...

This fee adjustment is a direct response to consistent feedback from our Sting families, who’ve expressed a strong desire to see the program grow, improve, and compete with other hockey options...

Registration fees are based on projected program expenses and resources. For the 2025–2026 season, this includes a $200 increase for U11 AA through U15 AA, and a $300 increase for U18 AA. We believe in full transparency and are proud to share what is included:

  • Practice Ice (two practices/week: 1.5 hrs + 1 hr = 60 hours total)
  • Game Ice (32 game season + playoffs)
  • Player Development
  • Goalie Development

First-Time Sting Players

First-time Sting players must upload digital copies of the following documents during registration:

  • Birth Certificate
  • Current Utility Bill (proof of address)
  • Parent/Guardian Declaration
  • Respect in Sport Certification

Failure to provide complete documentation will result in an incomplete registration.

Payment Options

There are two options for payment within TEAM LINKT:

  • Option #1: Full payment within 7 days of final team selection.
  • Option #2: Payment plan with all fees due by November 30, 2025.

Important Considerations Before Committing

Committing to elite hockey with the Sturgeon Sting requires a greater level of time and financial commitment than community-level programs. Families should ensure they are fully prepared to meet these expectations, including travel, tournaments, training, and other team obligations throughout the season.

Players are not required to pay the full Sting registration fee unless selected for one of our AA teams. If selected, players and families will receive an email from our Registrar within 24 hours of team selection to complete the full registration process.

Please take time to review all tryout details, fee structures, and required documentation before proceeding with registration.

  • Note: SHC no longer accepts cheques for Registration Fees.
  • Full registration payment is due by November 30, 2025. Failure to pay will result in removal from the hockey season.
  • Additional team fees may be added by the Head Coach after team formation and must be paid by October 31. Players may be removed until these are paid in full.
  • 2025–2026 Jersey Deposit: A $125.00 cheque will be collected at the team level.
