Rules

When your group uses the facility, you are responsible for ensuring the following rules are followed. Please be aware that the Pit is monitored 24 hours a day via video surveillance.

  • You must inspect the ice surface, boards, and player bench area before each session. If an unsafe condition exists, you must notify the rink attendant. If no attendant is on duty to rectify the situation, DO NOT use the ice.
  • If you notice that the ice conditions are unsafe or become unsafe, you must discontinue play.
  • Players must wear full equipment, including a mouth guard and neck guard.
  • You must sign a waiver and make sure every player using the ice has signed a waiver. For children under 18, their parents must sign the waiver.
  • Players and coaches who signed a waiver will be given a sticker to wear on their helmets. If they don’t have a sticker on their helmet, they are not allowed on the ice.
