Why does Martensville need a new rink? “It would be awesome. There would be so much more ice time!! We could host our own tournaments again! And we wouldn’t have to travel out of town as much for practices. Maybe other teams would come to our rink too…they could also host tournaments and practice at our nice new rink.” - Blake Carlson, Baseball & Hockey Athlete “More time to play the game I love with my friends.” - Ryland McConnell, Hockey Athlete
“ To me, a new rink would mean being able to play ringette in my home town instead of driving to further rinks. And if we had more ice here, then maybe more people would want to play ringette. I’d love to see my favorite sport grow in my community.” - Piper Landry, Ringette Athlete
