Teen activities
Teens in Alma: a cégep town's bench
School sport, teen-priced ice and a junior league on real curling sheets.
Teen activities in Alma: the Jeannois' town, the 13+ ice, and a junior curling league
Alma's teen layer is unusually concrete, because the town is a school-board and cégep seat: the CSS du Lac-Saint-Jean's HQ is in town (350 boul. Champlain Sud), the Collège's Jeannois field eight RSEQ sports, and the Ville's drop-in grid prices teen ice by name. What follows is the verified bench -- school sport at structure grade, never fixtures, and the rooms a teenager can actually book, skate or join.
The structure first: the Collège d'Alma, 675 boul. Auger Ouest -- an autonomous public cégep (in town since its own right; about 1,000 regular students), whose Jeannois field eight RSEQ sports and whose public layer includes La Tourelle and La Galerie. Its own road race, La Collégiale, ran its 5th edition on Sunday September 20, 2026 -- PAST: 1/3/5/10 km courses and a 5 km marche, inscription 45 $ with the 1/3 km free for children, profits to the Jeannois, and more than 800 participants on the Collège's own count. The UQAC centre d'études hosted at the same address is attributed to UQAC and Saguenay -- a hosted centre, never an Alma university.
The teen bench
The ice, priced for teens
the town's ice: the Centre Mario-Tremblay, 605 boul. Saint-Luc, paired with the Plaines Vertes grounds (tennis, soccer, beach volleyball, the athletics track and football on the Ville's own recreation layer), and the Centre sportif Mistouk, 401 rue Mistouk in the secteur Saint-Cœur-de-Marie. Drop-in hockey libre runs at 3,50 $ for ages 13 and up on the calendar's own grid. hockey, the town's signature sport: the Aiglons of Hockey Mineur d'Alma at the Centre Mario-Tremblay and Mistouk rinks, and the Tournoi provincial M18 d'Alma, whose dated 2026 edition ran January 14-18, 2026 at the CMT in Hockey Québec's own registry -- PAST, with the Aiglons recorded as BB-class finalists. No senior or junior franchise is seated in Alma: the Marquis are Jonquière's and the Saguenéens are Chicoutimi's, both Saguenay, however regional the rosters. Fixtures are pattern-only in this guide -- none is listed, printed or derived. The heritage is real: the Aigles d'Alma, 1946-47 provincial intermediate champions, and Alma's hosting of the 2017 Jeux du Québec.
The joining sports
The Club de soccer Le Boréal d'Alma runs a full structure on its own site -- summer registration, evaluation camps, and an automne-hiver season from age 4 -- and the town's skating clubs (Axels, Lames d'argent, Satellites) carry the ice arts. The most distinctive teen membership in town is on the curling sheets: the Club de curling Riverbend d'Alma, 1030 rue de la Gare Ouest, in the Riverbend sector across the Grande Décharge -- 'depuis 1928' in the club's own wording, four sheets as the club's own description states them. Its 2026-27 season is live on the club's own site: the Tournoi Molson runs Wed Nov 4 to Sun Nov 8, 2026, with a live inscription form, and the club then hosts the Curling Québec provincial circuit final, Thu Nov 12 to Sun Nov 15, 2026, with the U15 regionals to follow on Feb 6-7, 2027. Its leagues run evenings for adults, days for retirees, Friday mornings and a Sunday friendly, plus a junior league for ages 8-21.
The rooms
the Cinéma Complexe Alma, 900 boul. des Cascades, the town's operating cinema on its own exhibitor surface: online ticketing, group screenings and room rentals on its own services pages, and a showtimes grid that rotates weekly -- the grid read for this build (Sun Oct 4 - Mon Oct 5, 2026) carried about nine titles across VF, VO and subtitled screenings. No screen count is printed anywhere in this guide: the only count in circulation sits inside an AI-generated directory summary, not an exhibitor statement, and it does not travel. Beside the commercial house, the Ciné-club d'Alma is a real repertory layer in town, carried at existence grade -- no dated 2026 screening was captured on an organizer surface. The diffuseur's humour bills are the teen evening in October (the festivals page owns the Festival d'humour's own canon), and the Centre multisport's paroi d'escalade and indoor track give the rainy week a plan that is not a screen.
What this page does not do
No Jeannois fixture is listed, printed or derived -- the Collège's own soccer page publishes its automne-2026 home calendars, and a guide that reprints a school calendar invites stale promises; the structure and the surfaces are what's printed here. No senior-hockey fandom is manufactured either: with no franchise seated in Alma, a teen's big-league night is the Saguenéens trip to Chicoutimi -- Saguenay's, on the day-trips pages, labelled as itself.
Common questions
What can teenagers do in Alma?
Play hockey libre (13+, 3,50 $) or skate at the CMT and Mistouk, join Le Boréal soccer or the skating clubs, curl in Riverbend's junior league (ages 8-21), climb at the Centre multisport, follow the Jeannois' Collège sports, and take the diffuseur's and cinema's evening bills.
Does Alma have a junior hockey team to watch?
No senior or junior franchise is seated in Alma -- the Saguenéens are Chicoutimi's and the Marquis Jonquière's, both Saguenay. Alma's hockey is the Aiglons' minor system and the Tournoi provincial M18 (Jan 14-18, 2026, PAST), printed pattern-only.
