TryB4Joining Program
The province wide TryB4Joining Program was created by the Ontario Speed Skating Association, OSSA, to allow individuals, groups or families to try the sport of speed skating for four (4) sessions before committing to a full season membership.
TryB4Joining dates are on consecutive Wednesdays. Come and try speed skating. We supply the skates, coaches, and the ice. All we need is you! Our next session starts in Sept 2025.
Here’s a list of equipment that skaters need to be wearing while on the ice. TryB4 skaters will be provided with all appropriate equipment, however will be required to bring their own helmet. A hockey or bicycle helmet works! You are also welcome to bring any additional items noted on the list.
