Title A name given to the resource Ringette player goes national Description An account of the resource Article published in the Chilliwack Progress newspaper on January 15, 1986 written by Robert Brown entitled: "Ringette player goes national." The article is about the first player from Chilliwack to play in a national competition. 14-year old Renae Stevenson who is a grade 9 student at Sardis Secondary was selected for the BC Ringette All-Star team after trying out in December. The team will compete at the national championships in Regina, April 1-6. The team will prepare by travelling to Winnipeg for a tournament on February 20-23. The article goes one to say that Stevenson is seeking sponsorships to fund her travel. BC Ringette is able to issue official receipts for donations. Renae Stevenson was the first girl in Chilliwack to play organized minor hockey on boys' teams when she was six years old. She started in figure skating before playing hockey. She commented: "I find ringette fun because control of the ring is so much easier than with a puck. We lived in Sparwood for a year. I made the rep hockey team but was cut because I was a girl." The article also speaks to the Chilliwack ringette team's need for players. Coach Mike McAstocker is looking for players aged 11 and over. "We are hoping to get 60-80 girls to register for next season when we hold registration in early April for girls aged 7 to 17 in five playing categories. If we can get full teams we will be able to enter a Fraser Valley League in each category instead of playing exhibition games." He goes on to say the association is seeking sponsors to help purchase uniforms and equipment. For $100 per sponsor, business names will appear on uniforms. Chilliwack ringette practices are held at Vedder Twin Rinks Fridays 4:30-5:30pm with games on Saturdays 4 to 5pm. On January 24 and 25 the Chilliwack team will play exhibition games at Princeton and Osoyoos. The article includes photographs of Renae Stevenson and Mike McAstocker as well as a full length photograph of Renae Stevenson on the ice during a practice.

Title A name given to the resource Ringette players to flock here for Friendship Games Description An account of the resource Article published in the Langley Advance newspaper on February 23, 1983 entitled: "Ringette players to flock here for Friendship Games." The article reports that the Aldergrove Ringette Association will host 120 girls from the four western provinces for the first Western Canada Friendship Games to be held March 11 to 13 at the Aldergrove Arena. Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba will each send two belle division teams. Representing BC will be the Langley Power Puffs and the Aldergrove Legionettes. BC Ringette president Keith Corney commented that "there will be no losers, only winners." Corney explained that these games do not have trophies and were designed to promote friendship, goodwill, and sportsmanship. Each athlete received a friendship medallion. The Powder Puffs and the Legionettes are B division players where most athletes on the team are completing their first ringette season. Both of the team's coaches are also new. The hope is that the Western Canada Friendship Games will pave the way for future games in all divisions.

Yvonne participated in an exchange program with a synchronized swim team from Hull, Québec that saw a large group of ringette players from BC visit and billed with a group of swim team members from Hull, and vice-versa. Other activities on a national level that Yvonne was a part of include assisting with two Ringette Canada publications while representing BC on the Ringette Canada Sport Development and the Safety and Equipment Committee over two years. In 1984, Yvonne began her coaching career when she was 18 and took a team to Fraser Lake for a friendship tournament. In 1990, she assisted with the Lower Mainland Jr. All-Star (AA) team and she continued to coach through the years, including her grandchildren. As an administrator, Yvonne was a board member of the Langley Ringette Association, the Fraser Valley Ringette Association, the BC Ringette Association, and the Chilliwack Ringette Association, serving many roles on the executive.
