The Lacombe Skating Club is proud of our strong, vibrant, and supportive community amongst the Skaters, Coaches, Executive, and Membership. The following Code of Conduct, and Club Safety Rules have been outlined by the LFSC Executive and Coaches to promote safety, good behaviour, and productive use of ice time, at all Club-sponsored activity, and when representing the Club. Any person not adhering to these rules may be asked to leave the ice.
Code of Conduct
Code of Conduct
- Skaters are to use designated dressing rooms. For security reasons, friends are asked to wait outside.
- Skaters are required to act in a courteous and polite manner in all parts of the arena (lobby, dressing rooms, on ice, etc.) and toward the Executive, Coaches, music player, supervising parents, other skaters and arena staff.
- Coaches are in charge while on the ice. This may involve asking skaters to behave appropriately or issuing time outs.
Freelance Coaching
- The best interests of our Club’s skaters and coaches are paramount. Requests for any external coach to enter the ice must be submitted in writing to our Pro-Liaison, 30 days in advance, along with documentation to support the coach’s good standing with Skate Canada. The request will be subject to explicit approval by the Executive, and all members of the LSC coaching staff.
SCHEDULE EXCEPTIONS
- Skating is cancelled on holidays. Skating will take place as scheduled on school closures due to inclement weather and PD days. Please check calendar on website.
REFUNDS
- Requests for refunds must be submitted in writing within 2 weeks of the start of the session. Any requests for refunds due to medical conditions will require doctors’ certificates and will be pro-rated. An administration fee of $50 will apply to all refunds.
CARNIVAL
- To showcase our skaters, we hold a year-end Ice Carnival! This annual event includes skaters from all programs in Session B. It is an excellent way to finish the season and a real hit with participants and spectators alike! The Carnival is scheduled for Sunday, March 3rd, 2019. Carnival practice begins February 11th, during regular lessons.
Each family participating in our Carnival will be responsible for the purchase of one booklet of 6 tickets for $30, and a $50 deposit for Carnival costumes. The costume deposit is refundable upon costume return. You can look forward to receiving more information about the Carnival as the season progresses! A newsletter outlining Carnival groups, the schedule, and costume details, will be available in early 2019.
