Coyotes Community Ice Center

Nice new facility. Well located for the east Valley. While they are still buildong out amenities, it is good ice. The ice surface itself is crisp and hard. The bkards are notably repurposed which definitely goes along with giving them character. At times though the bounces off the boards were not semetrical with the angle they hit the boards at, which is surprising and frustrating if you are playing defense. Likewise, the edging needs to be worked on to remove the bubbles and flatten the surface next to the boards as the ice matures. The final.thing you will notice while skating is the low ceiling which doesn't so much cause any problems other than your perspective in thinking the rink to be smaller than it actually is.The locker rooms are nicely spacious, although lacking good permanent benchs. Showers are missing as yet, but no doubt in the works.Generally speaking, this is a facility just opened but not fully built out. That said, it looks good, skates well and seems like a good start to good little ice rink.I'll be back!

This rink has one sheet of ice and no seating for watching hockey. Be prepared to stand. Also the rink sides were so blurry that it was almost impossible to see the clock and score.

Good sheet of ice. Low ceiling makes for some interesting plays. Enjoy coming out to a fast and hard sheet but make sure your skates are sharp.

Lisa helped me host a birthday party for my daughter here and everything turned out really great. The kids loved the ice and being able to get a little break in a private party area was perferct. We had a lot of first time ice skaters in the group so the little lesson was a nice addition. Communication could be a little better but don't let this discourage you. I highly recommend this as a birthday party option to mix things up.
