Are there any ice hockey rinks/ leagues in the Reno/ Sparks vicinity?
I'm relocating from Colorado to either N Cal or NV. I enjoy playing ice hockey and was wondering if there are any rinks in the Reno/ Sparks area. It looks like a nicer place to live than Sacramento, but I'd really like to continue my lifelong hobby. Thanks in advance for your responses!

We are newbies to this area, but from what I have been told, the closest ice rink is in Squaw Valley in Tahoe. They say that roller hockey is big here. Maybe others know more??

I'm not sure. I know there is the skating rink downtown on the river.

The ice rink downtown is outdoors and therefore only open in the winter months.

I heard on the radio the other day that an ice rink is going in next to that new mall off I-80 and Sparks Blvd. I don't think construction on the rink has started yet. There's supposed to be an IMAX theater going in there, too.

Here is an article:
RGJ.com: Project Brainstorm '07: Ice arena requests dominate
So, it appears that there will be an ice rink at the legends at sparks marina which will be a new mall. |

I just came back from a hockey tournament in South Lake Tahoe. The arena was very nice. There seemed to be a few local teams and they had a minor hockey system also. South Lake Tahoe is about 1 hour from Reno.
