Cricket makes cover of Regina summer leisure guide
Registration for various programs (but not cricket) begins May 12
In perhaps a sign of the times, cricket has made the cover of the City of Regina summer leisure guide — even though it's not one of the program offerings.
A paper copy of the annual summer guide, eagerly awaited by parents, is being delivered to homes today May 5.
The guide contains programs such as swimming lessons and sports camps that run from June 1 — Aug. 31.
A cricket program for kids 10 to 14 was offered in the city's winter-spring guide, but it's not mentioned in the summer guide.
Immigration from countries where cricket is a big sport has swelled the numbers recently in Regina. Plans are in the works to build some cricket practice facilities, including one close to the south leisure centre.
People who live in Regina can begin registration for summer leisure activities on May 12 at 7 a.m. CST. People who live outside the city can register May 14 beginning at 7 a.m.
Registering can be done online using the city's e-registration page. People can also register by phone at 306-777-7529, or in person at the following city recreation centres:
- Fieldhouse
- Lawson Aquatic Centre
- Sandra Schmirler Leisure Centre
- North West Leisure Centre
- Neil Balkwill Civic Arts Centre
