Skate Hire
You can bring your own ice skates or hire from us. Skate hire is available from child size 7 to an adult size 15. We also have penguin skating aids for the little ones (under 1.2m) that can help them glide safely along. For bigger kids (over 1.2m) we have snowmen aids available for hire. During busy periods you may find there is a wait for these icy helpers as they can be very popular.
What to wear
Trousers must be worn and we recommend long-sleeved clothing, padded jackets and gloves. These not only keep you warm but help break your fall and protect your hands from the ice and passing skates.
Important information:
- Children under the age of 8 must be accompanied by a skating adult.
- Carers for registered disabled users can skate for free (proof will be needed to be eligible).
Clubs for experienced skaters
am Ice and Leisure Centre is home to various Ice clubs which can be attended when you are a competent skater or have completed NISA Skate UK levels 1-8.
Ice Dance Club
The Ice Dance Club is open to members aged 16 and over and meets weekly. You need a reasonable level of skating ability, for example you have taken part in the group lessons and have attained Skate UK Level 8.
If you are unsure if Ice Dance is for you, join a taster session where club members can help you through the moves.
