Is a recreational activity-based program that teaches physical and social skills for pre-school children through games, and activities.

Toddlers and parents focus on physical movement and social exploration through an introduction of a different sport each class using developmentally appropriate games and activities. This is a parented class. Each child attends this program with ONE parent or guardian.

Check out their web site for more information on this amazing program. www.sportball.ca.

This is an outdoor program which will still include both Soccer and Ball skills. We are very excited about the changes and feel this will be a fun program with continuous action and stimulating drills.

Teams will be formed, and parent volunteers will act as coaches and assistant coaches. We will provide you with an excellent handbook and resources that will make it easy to follow and implement. A small incentive will also be provided to all the coaches and assistant coaches. If you are interested in coaching, please email jmcculloch@martensville.ca.

Blended learning is a combination of in-class, face-to-face instruction with online instruction. Typically, theory and information are conveyed to participants outside of the classroom through an online component. This allows for the in-class component to concentrate on skill development and the application of theory.

Stop counting the reps. Start training to the beat. STRONG Nation™ combines body weight, muscle conditioning, cardio and plyometric training moves synced to original music that has been specifically designed to match every single move. Every squat, every lunge, every burpee is driven by the music, helping you make it to that last rep, and maybe even five more. Formally known as STRONG by Zumba.

GRIT (Group Interval Training) A moderate to advanced workout using the interval style. You’ll work for 10 seconds to 3 minutes to your fitness level; get a well-deserved break and do it all over again. It will use bodyweight as well as incorporate equipment like steps and weights to emphasize aerobic, interval, resistance and strength training. No two classes will be exactly alike and there will be some of your favorite tunes to keep you motivated.

POUND Instead of listening to music, you become the music in this exhilarating full-body workout that combines cardio, conditioning, and strength training with yoga and pilates-inspired movements.

Using Ripstix®, lightly weighted drumsticks engineered specifically for exercising, POUND transforms drumming into an incredibly effective way of working out.

We’ll use the walking track and weight room or move outdoors if the weather permits. Bring indoor and outdoor shoes and lots of water. A safe, fun and friendly way to enjoy physical activity at your own level.

Yoga A Gentle and Yin combo. Please bring lots of props like cushions, blanket, a block, and water. We’ll enjoy gentle yoga for 30 minutes followed by Yin for 30 minutes. Lots of modifications offered for those with restrictions/injuries. A safe, friendly and fun way to enjoy yoga together.

Martensville’s New Multipurpose Recreation Facility The City of Martensville, partnering with the Martensville Community Recreation Project (MCRP), is set to deliver a phased facility to meet the ever-growing demand for more ice and indoor field time. Where will it be? The City is exploring a few locations with accessibility and growth opportunity for our community and region – the best location to meet the recreational vision and best serve our residents. We will update you once a location is chosen.

How will this facility be funded?

The City and the MCRP are focused on Phase 1 with a project cost of approximately $13M. Phase 1 of the project is focused on an additional arena, seating and leisure ice surface. In November 2018, the City allocated $6.5M towards construction of Phase 1. These funds came from recreation levies over the last two annual budgets. Our goal is to move forward with this project without raising taxes to cover capital costs of building the facility. In addition, the MCRP – a local volunteer non-profit – has raised $250,000 over the past 5 years for Phase 1. The City and the MCRP are partnering to fundraise the balance for Phase 1. We are pursuing government funding for future phases. Stay tuned over the next number of months for some exciting updates!

To see the fully phased rendering of the project visit MCRP.ca or martensville.ca A new multi-purpose facility will provide positive impacts in respect to sport, leisure and economic spinoffs in the community and region. Together we can create the capacity to not only retain sporting events and create and expand programs, but also the potential to bring a variety of major sporting events into region. This will be a positive development for the local business community that will see increased visitors coming to the community to participate in sport.

Why does Martensville need a new rink?

“It would be awesome. There would be so much more ice time!! We could host our own tournaments again! And we wouldn’t have to travel out of town as much for practices. Maybe other teams would come to our rink too…they could also host tournaments and practice at our nice new rink.”

- Blake Carlson, Baseball & Hockey Athlete “More time to play the game I love with my friends.”

- Ryland McConnell, Hockey Athlete

“ To me, a new rink would mean being able to play ringette in my home town instead of driving to further rinks. And if we had more ice here, then maybe more people would want to play ringette. I’d love to see my favorite sport grow in my community.” - Piper Landry, Ringette Athlete

• A pumptrack is a course containing hills and berms that are ridden by “pumping” with your arms and legs to propel yourself forward rather then pedaling or pushing.

• It allows for good riding conditions rain or shine, and is good for all wheels as well!

• If it has wheels, it can be enjoyed on this track. – Bikes, Scooters, Boards, Blades, Wheelchairs, Striders • It promotes a healthy, active outdoor lifestyle.

• It allows for opportunity to engage with others who would not typically engage in a team-sport setting.

• It teaches balance and coordination which are useful tools for any sport.

• They are fun!

Canada Day in Martensville!!

This year is Canada’s 154th birthday, and we are excited to celebrate with you!! Check out the 13th annual Canada Day celebrations at the North Ridge Centennial Community Centre right here in Martensville!

We are already busy planning a great day!! There will be lots of great FREE activities for all ages. The day kicks off in the afternoon, starting with an Art Show and Community History Showcase. Family activities start at 1:00pm with crafts, games, scavenger hunt and more. To add to this, cupcakes and ice cream are served to the first 200 people. Activities will continue into the evening and wrap up at 8:00pm.

The feature event of Canada Day in Martensville is the fireworks display and the Cinema Under the Stars – a GIANT 3 storey inflatable movie screen in Martensville. Once again, the Martensville Information and Visitor Centre is working hard to get a brand NEW animated movie, one that is so new that it’s still in theatres and won’t be available on video yet.

A BBQ and concession will be on site throughout the event , some favourites available will be popcorn, cotton candy, non alcoholic beverages and other snacks. Glow sticks will also be available throughout the evening. All proceeds support the programs and projects at the Martensville Information and Visitor Centre.

Please watch for a more detailed list of events to come as COVID - 19 restrictions evolve and will direct how the event will go. In the case of COVID - 19 restrictions plans to increase our online virtual festivities with social distancing activities alongside our “Drive - In” or “Drive - Thru” events for Canada Day such as treat pick up, Fireworks and Outdoor Movie Theatre will be observed.

We are always looking for volunteers to help with planning this event and to help throughout the day. For further information please call the Martensville Information & Visitor Centre at 306-242-0362 or email us at martensvilleinfo@sasktel.net.
