UNIplex

The UNIplex has two NHL-sized ice surfaces.

The COOP IGA surface has 65 seats and can also accommodate 85 people standing. This surface is designed for sledge hockey, with plexiglass in front of the players’ benches and the penalty boxes, which allows for a view of what’s happening on the ice. There is also direct and unobstructed access to the ice surface from the doors of the players’ benches and penalty boxes.

The UNI surface has 1,100 seats and can also accommodate 200 people standing. The rink is also equipped with a giant 16-foot screen.

The UNIplex has 10 change rooms, two of which can accommodate sledge hockey players, as well as one for coaches and one for referees.
