ECRHA: Home Rinks

[William Bourque]

I am collecting this information for my own personal knowledge. Would someone from each team please post the following:

Team Name:
School Location:
Home Rink Name:
Home Rink Location:
Distance From School to Rink (Miles):

Your home rink could be any indoor rink that you use to practice. It doesn't neccessarily have to be the nicest place in the world. But what im looking for is indoor rinks, with sport court that could be suitable for game play.


Example:

Team Name: Shippensburg University
School Location: Shippensburg, PA
Home Rink Name: Susquehanna Sports Center
Home Rink Location: Leymone, PA
Distance From School to Rink (Miles): 40 Miles

[Patn Lawton]

Team Name: Brockport
School Location: Brockport, NY
Home Rink Name: Randy Dix Memorial Pool
Home Rink Location: Tuttle South Gym - Multi-Purpose Room
Distance From School to Rink (Miles): On Campus

Randy Dix Memorial Pool is about the shape and size of a tennis court on top of an old swimming pool in the basement of an athletic facility. Sport Court and two nets that are falling apart are there. Randy Dix Memorial Pool is named after Randy Dix who was known for his 9 out of 10 sniping, and fat guy falls that put mine to shame. His career died when Craig "Trendy" Brodmerkel (currently Stony Brook goalie) told him that he couldn't go to regionals 4 years ago because he sucked and never came to practice.

60 Miles West of Brockport is Lockport which has a rink that is home of the Buffalo Wings. When I was a freshman there was a tournament there. I took a slapshot and it went through the wooden boards behind the net and Rebecca said we would never go back there again.

35 Miles East of Brockport is Irondeqouit, which features a rink of crappy sport court that has duct tape and screws/nails to keep it all together. One time a player's stick got stuck under the sportcourt and a 4 x 6 slab of tiles flew up and impeded an offensive player's progess on a 1 on 1. He eventually flipped over it, it was awesome.


Williamsport is a 3.5 hour drive and is the closest acceptable rink to play an ECRHA game at that I am aware of.

Team Name: The Pennsylvania State University

Distance From School to Rink (Miles): Approx 60 miles.

The YMCA is the rink that the ECRHA events are held at.

Team Name: Maine
School Location: Orono, ME
Home Rink Name: Alfond Arena
Home Rink Location: Orono, ME
Distance From School to Rink (Miles): On campus

Unfortunately for the league, the Alfond is an ice hockey arena, so playing roller hockey there would be tough unless you guys want to try roller blades on ice. However, I think it would be fun sometime to have teams like Vermont or Brockport come up and play some ice hockey for a weekend if we could get the ice.

Theres actually a decent rink in Aston. It's called tri-state sports. Very much like the facility in downingtown. I used to work there and they just opened up the rink again. In fact, I think the marple gladiators just made it their home rink. Prob about a 5 min drive from neumann. (i would know i can see the damn campus from my bedroom window)

What is the closest Roller Hockey Facility... Zrink?

Holbrook Sports Center in Holbrook, MA would be the closest. Beyond that, there is an ice rink in Rochester, NH that melts their ice in the summer and puts down a sportcourt, but that's only for three months.

actually the rink in tewksbury, MA would be closer to maine than holbrook. Tewks has an ice and roller but the roller is a little weak.
