Erina Ice Arena has an official Olympic Sized ice speed skating track under the ice. We simply put special rubber blocks over the "dots" and hey presto- you have your speed track. Many Australian Speed Skating Records have been set on the superb fast ice at Erina Ice Arena during the National Chmpionships held in 2006.

"Short Track" ice speed skating is a great sport for young people (boys and girls) and also for adults. It could be your childs pathway to the Winter Olympics. There are regular races and competitions with the other clubs in Sydney.
