Skates and equipment

Skaters who need to rent skates from the club may want to be present at Registration Night so they can be fitted for skates or have to make individual appointments with our Equipment Manager or a one of the Club Coaches.

Please advise the Registrar with your name and the approximate shoe size of the skater (European size if known, otherwise North American size is fine).
