Other Information

What to Wear Proper fitting lace-up single blade skates are required. Bobskates, double bladed skates and speed skates will not be permitted on the ice. The rule of thumb for purchasing skates is one size smaller than shoe size. New skates do not come sharpened and will require sharpening prior to the first class. Shoes are not to be worn on the ice.

Attendance Limits For safety reasons, when arenas and rinks reach their maximum attendance, staff will not allow any more skaters on the ice.

Assistive Devices Call the facility to see what skating devices are allowed during Leisure Skate programs. No homemade assistive devices are allowed on the ice at any time.

Inclusion and Support Equipment: Sledges New and improved sledges are now available in some facilities. These adapted skating devices make our arenas accessible for persons with a disability. Please book your sledge in advance by calling the North York District representative at 416-395-6183.
