Ringette Hall of Fame

Mirl (Red) McCarthy

1988

A key person in the development of the sport in its earliest days, Red was the man responsible for organizing the very first ringette game ever played. Red wrote the first rules of ringette and was the individual to recommend stick colours to identify positions. Red worked for many years with the local association in his home town of Espanola, Ontario.
Red was a key figure in many sports and youth activities in Northern Ontario and was the Recreation Director for Espanola for 41 years.

Territory acknowledgement

While we are a proud Canadian organization, we acknowledge that our head office is located on traditional unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg People, and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. Ringette Canada extends our respect to all First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples for their valuable contributions to this land. We are committed to moving forward in the spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.
