2010 has been a positive year with all the opening of the brand new ice sports facility at Docklands. This will be excellent for ice sports in not only Victoria, but also in Regional and Interstate ice circles. The Icehouse opening coincided with the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver and was ready to meet the renewed interest in ice sports that the Winter Olympics always generates. With the Olympic Winter Institute taking residence at the Icehouse and a facility capable of hosting international competitions, Victoria will be resurrected as the ice sports capital of Australia. With development of talent still needing to take place in regional Victoria, we anticipate that Bendigo will be the first location for a new regional rink. With the closure of the our old, beloved Bendigo rink in February this year, our biggest challenge is to keep spirits up at ISCB and lobby for a new ice rink, while travelling to Docklands to train and practice. So lets keep positive and strive together for a new rink in Bendigo!!
