Novice adult shinny hockey practice

Are you a wannabe shinny hockey player, but just starting to get the hang of it? Dufferin Rink offers an hour of protected drop-in shinny hockey time, Wednesday nights from 10 to 11 p.m. None of the Dufferin Rink hot shots are allowed on the ice during that time. No need to register, and it’s free, with a staff resource person on the ice who will pass to you and give you pointers if you want. Or you can just practice as you choose. For more information, call the park at 416 392-0913, and ask for Dan Watson.

Rules for a community rink

Campbell rink is a community rink. All members of the community are welcome to skate, play hockey, or meet their friends here. Rink staff would be pleased to answer any questions you may have about the programs and policies.

Please observe the following rules so that everyone can enjoy the rink:

• Respect programs and permit times in designated areas.
• Do not use hockey sticks or pucks on the pleasure skating side.
• Leave the ice surface or any other rink area when asked to do so by staff.
• Put garbage in cans, not on the floor.
• Do not smoke in the rink house or on the ice.
• Be considerate of noise levels.
• Do not use foul, offensive or racist language.
• Do not fight or play roughly inside the building or on the rink surface.
• Do not damage anything.

In case of a serious disagreement between rink staff and a rink user about any of these rules, the staff may ask the rink user to leave the rink until the matter is discussed with the Recreation Supervisor. If the rink user refuses the staff’s request to leave the rink, a letter of trespass may result.

Campbell Family Skate

posted March 5, 2005

We though we would have a final Campbell Family Skate March 25th. When we got there though, we found the building closed. It seems the skating season has ended and altough it would have been nice to have one final hot dog roast, we think the experiment worked out quite nicely. Hopefully, next year we can do something similar. If you are interested in helping out with ideas or time for the coming season, be sure to email us and rink supervisor Tino DeCastro at Dufferin Rink or call us at 416-392-0913 and we can collaborate.

Thanks to all the staff that came out to help and all the community people who started the project and helped it continue by coming out to skate. Until next year!!

Campbell Rink Staff and Dufferin Rink Staff are putting aside a special TWO hour time for Family Skate At Campbell Park….EVERY SUNDAY : 2-4pm!!

There will be

• Drop in Skating Lessons from 3-4pm

And

• Snacks served from a barrel fire near the rink, where you can also warm up!!

Learn to play shinny for adults 2005-2006:

posted December 8, 2005

There's "Learn to play shinny for adults," taught by Lawrence Barichello, at Dufferin Rink on Sundays at 6 p.m. to 7.30. Registration is on Nov.20.

From Lawrence: "All adult beginner men and women are welcome who can basically turn and stop on skates. This is for beginners only. The idea is for people who have really never played before to learn the basics. If you can already play and have skills you will not be allowed to participate. $90 per person for the whole season. (This fee goes to the City for cost of ice time only—lessons are free!) This season, we will be collecting the entire $90 fee in advance during registration night."

There will also be additional ice time for practice games, times TBA.

To contact Lawrence, call 416-530-4810.

He also has a beginners-shinny web http://www.tinyurl.com/8jjnj.

Tournament News

posted January 15, 2006

There were three tournaments in January in the three-rink cluster:

Women of Winter Shinny Hockey Tournament at Dufferin Rink

• January 6 and 7 (8 teams): which was also featured in the media

Wallace Rink Shinny Hockey Tournament (ages 8 to 13) shinny tournament

• January 7 (6 teams), so the younger kids had their own tournament at Wallace while Dufferin Rink was reserved for women’s shinny

Campbell Rink Tournament (15 and over) January 21 (6 teams).

• All the tournaments were fast and exciting and worked out really well. If it hadn’t been for Deirdre Norman getting the ball rolling with her women’s shinny tournament, we might not have copied her by having other tournaments as well. (Thanks!)

Next up (still in the planning stage) in February

• An invitation to the Jimmie Simpson Rink “hockey in the neighborhood” program (at Queen near Broadview), to bring over some younger teams to play at one or several of our three cluster rinks, maybe also with kids from Regent Park South Rink. Watch for the posters, or talk to Dufferin Rink staff.
