I've been skating at this Chandler location since 1999 or 2000, playing in the adult hockey leagues for 15 of those years. This rink recently changed hands and is now run by the Ice Den people who run the Scottsdale Ice Den. In general, this has been a positive change. The ice surface at this rink has drastically improved since this rink changed management. It is better kept, with better surfaces and stays reasonable in warmer weather.
In fact, they have had some growing pains (fixing cold showers etc) but seem to have gotten over the hump in these areas. I would have given them 5 stars if not for my last point below.
One thing that has declined in the last year for anyone who plays hockey here- the officiating of league games has become inconsistent and poor. In this situation that everyone suffers. Refs routinely do not understand the rules in situations they should know them. It appears the refs have no relationship to the leagues and hence have no responsibility for the quality of officiating they provide. Inquiries and concerns have no where to be lodged since the refs have no accountability. This makes the experience poor for all involved.
I appreciate the kind staff who manages the leagues and staffs the check-in areas. They are excellent.
