QUESTIONS? The quickest way to connect with us is by sending us an email to info@thepond.ca 

If the program you are registering for is marked as FULL, or you are prompted the program is full please continue with the online registration. Your child will be added to the waitlist, and we will reach out if a spot becomes available or if we are able to expand the program.

Please note that participants must meet the age and skill level requirements outlined in the program description. If your child does not meet these requirements, and without prior written approval from The Pond, your registration will be transferred to the appropriate program.

AT THE BURLINGTON POND, we do not hold players back. If we deem midway through a session that your child should be a higher level clinic we will move them to the appropriate clinic! Upon Pond Instructor approval
