COVID-19 UPDATES With the Middlesex-London area entering the RED zone as of December 14th, we have made significant changes to our facility operation. CURRENT ...FACILITY REGULATIONS Maximum 10 participants on the ice Each area of the facility will have its own entrance, users must enter using the appropriate entrance for the rink/area they are using. All users must exit through the same door they enter. Staff will meet you at that entrance and open the door 15 minutes prior to your start time. Users must enter as a group and may not enter until their full group is present. All previous screening procedures and protocol will remain in place. To help ensure efficient screening, users are encouraged to pre-screen utilizing the CANATRACE app prior to entering the facility. Dressing rooms are NOT available for use. Users are required to come dressed except for skates and helmet. Staff will escort the group to their designated area to put on skates. NO SPECTATORS ONE parent/guardian is permitted per participant under the age of 18. They must remain in the designated area. Absolutely no access between areas of the facility. Users must vacate the facility within 15 minutes following their ice time. Users must EXIT through the same door which they ENTERED. The facility is considered CLOSED to the public only those with a scheduled session are permitted entrance.. Benches and other rink touch points are cleaned between use. No spitting, no littering - take out what you brought in! No lingering in the facility - participants and parents must exit immediately following their ice time. Face coverings are mandatory inside the facility when not on-ice. Participants may remove the face covering immediately before stepping on-ice, and are expected to put it on as soon as they are off the ice. No games or scrimmages are permitted - practice and instruction only

With yesterday's provincial announcement, the Sports Centre will be closed from December 24th through January 23rd. Any ice times that were scheduled for that time period have been cancelled. Our staff will be taking a well-deserved break for the holidays, and will return to working remotely in January, as we prepare to reopen and welcome you all back to the ice! From all of us at the Sports Centre, have a safe and happy holiday!

COVID PROTOCOL UPDATE: PARENTS/GUARDIANS - if you are planning to watch your child's ice time, you MUST enter at the same time and location as the team. Doors will be closed and won't be reopened for access, and there are no in and out privileges. Thanks for your cooperation!

Today we pause to honour & remember the irreplaceable contribution Canada's Veterans have made and continue to make for our country #LestWeForget

We at the Sports Centre are happy to have started a transitional return to operation at our facility. As you may have seen, we are currently renting ice though it is on a very limited basis. In order to abide by provincial regulations and our emergency orders, only certain sanctioned activities are currently permitted to operate, such as those approved by the Ontario Hockey Federation and Skate Ontario. Indoor recreational activities such as public skates, leagues or pick up ...groups are still prohibited under the emergency orders. While we are operating, we are not considered OPEN as access is limited only to those with scheduled ice times. We have also implemented additional protocol to ensure the safety of our users and staff. We thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work within local and provincial guidelines to return to play as quickly and safely as possible!

Tonight we are joining forces with many venues across Canada for the National Day of Visibility and recognizing the live events community. Venues have been dark since COVID-19 shuttered live events across the world. We are still here and ready to bring you great events when it is safe to do so. #LightUpLive #WeBuildEntertainment #LdnOnt

As per London’s health officials at Middlesex-London Health Unit, the wearing of face masks will be mandatory in all indoor public places effective tomorrow, July 18. If you plan on visiting us here at the Sports Centre, please make sure to bring your mask! Thank you in advance.

ICE TIMES AVAILABLE! We are now taking bookings for the month of August! Limited times available, enhanced safety measures and facility protocol in place. Email [email protected] to book your time to get back on the ice! We can't wait to see you here!
