QE Park has like...nothing. Are there any other rinks where I can rent it out for a couple of hours?

Thanks

What do you mean by has nothing?

I don't mind the place, fairly new with good nets and soft boards. Lots of people there on Sundays when the weathers good.

It's possible to rent Osbourne Gym. I think it's 100$ an hour. At least it was 5 years ago. When are you thinking of renting it? What's the price? How many guys?

How about my team and your team, and we split the cost. I can get maybe ten guys, you get maybe ten guys, and it's 5 bucks per person for an hour.

Also, I mean that I can't find a place to rent QE Park out which leaves going there early in the morning...

That'd work. I also have some friends that can fill in if we can't get everyone.

School gyms are available for b-ball, so maybe hockey too.

They do NOT like their gyms being wrecked by sticks.

I play at the Dunbar community centre on Thursdays. It may be available for individual times. Have to use a plastic blade, though.

I suggest you contact private establishments. Places that take the ice out for the spring/summer to have ball/roller hockey and lacrosse.

Place that comes to mind right away is Planet Ice in Coquitlam. 4 rinks, they take the ice out of two of them.

Private owned rinks (ie - not city rec centers) are more likely to have availability.

Im currently playing with guys that are renting out mount pleasant at 6 to 8 on sundays. Queen E is amazing too if the weather is great.
