Olympic Rink

The jewel in the crown of the sports complex, the international-size rink (200 feet by 98.5 feet) features state-of-the-art lighting, a training area with no boards and protective cushions for short-track speed skating, and a natural transformation for figure skaters.

The new Place Bell Olympic ice facilities are sure to satisfy the needs of all types of skaters.

Wider than conventional ice rinks (200 feet by 98.5 feet) and perfectly adapted to the requirements of disciplines such as short track speed skating, with removable boards and protective padding, and figure skating, the Olympic rink will thrill athletes as much as the 2,500 spectators who can attend their practices and competitions.
