Ice Skating

WHAT IS ICE SKATING? 

Ice skating was officially recognised as a sport in 1876 and is the process of gliding across an icy surface on metal blades attached to the botom of shoes (skates).

It is also a popular activity to do recreationally. Since being recognised as a sport, it has given rise to two distinct forms of skating: speed skating, which is a form of racing on skates and figure skating, which involves the peformance of various dance movements, spins and jumps. 

We are a brand new club looking to offer opportunities for people to ice skate. Currently, there are no specific competition teams.

Please note that tickets close the Monday before the session at midnight.
