  1. There used to be one the West Rand somewhere in Joburg where we went to go watch a friends boyfriend play - not sure if it is still there though.


  2. Grandwest Casino has an ice rink which is used for ice hockey as well.

    There was an international tournament held there a few years ago, watched a game between SA and Israel, cant remember who won.

    So yes, apparently we do play a bit of ice hockey

  3. There used to be one in Krugersdorp but I believe it has since closed down.

    In Pretoria we have one at the Kolonade Shopping Centre and yes, they do have tournaments and regular training sessions for ice hockey there.

    I can't skate for **** though, always leave the rink battered and bruised.

  4. Yes, they do - I had a few friends at school that played it.

    Our Ice Rink in Durban has gone to the dogs now - so the sport has kind of died down here, but if you are keen on Knife Fights - then visit Durbans Ice Rink.

  5. There used to be one in the Southern suburbs of Joburg and I also used to go to the one in Durban. But then in Durban they started a free food scheme to try and draw black kids to the sport. They just ended up with people coming for the free food and eventually the "begging bowl clan" took over and the real enthusiasts left.
