threestars Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Aaaah, so you probably wouldn't be able to give me any info on playing ice hockey in Melbourne then.....oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave30 Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 a little bit but not a whole lot. The melbourne ice is the team that plays in the national competition. There is only 1 or 2 ice rinks in melbourne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threestars Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Ya I have been doing some research....have you any idea how the rinks at the docklands are coming along? I can't believe that Australia wants to host the Winter Olympics....seems an utterly crazy idea. I know there are a number of amateur teams that play out of the Oakleigh rink, as well as the pro team....just need to find out whether they have rec level teams. My bf and I want to bring our hockey equipment with us, but not so much if we aren't going to get to use it. Definitely bringing our skates though!

Dave30 Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 pretty sure docklands rink is still a couple of years off, can't wait till it opens, defenetly gonna have a try out with a team just too see what it's like to play. what part of melbourne are you moving to?

threestars Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Well my bf has a job at Monash....Clayton campus, so probably somewhere near there. But we haven't really started looking for a place yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave30 Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 cool cool, well hope you find a team to play for, i'm sure you'll find the level pretty low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threestars Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 You wouldn't happen to know if they sell ice hockey stuff anywhere in Melbourne would you? Or somewhere you can get skates sharpened...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave30 Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 don't know if they would sell things but i'm sure oakleigh rink would sharpen skates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
