Sudbury Sprinters

The Sudbury Sprinters are part of the Ontario Speed Skating Association (OSSA) and skaters have the option to compete in many speed skating meetings throughout the province. Skaters are placed into heats based on their age and speed, so that all racers are challenged at their level. Skaters participate in a variety of races in varying lengths, typically beginning with sprint distances in heats of 3 to 5 skaters per heat. Skaters must use a combination of skill, speed, and strategy, seizing opportunities to overtake other skaters when possible to slide into the lead.
