IceFinder is a free tool that helps hockey players find public skates, "stick and pucks", and pickup hockey sessions at nearby rinks. The tool lets users search for events at multiple nearby rinks simultaneously, taking the headache out of finding ice time to practice.
Even though most rinks maintain a schedule on their website, rink websites are often outdated or difficult to navigate. Plus, if you have multiple rinks near you, there's no good way to search across the schedules of multiple rinks at once.
Since activities like stick and pucks and pickup games tend to get scheduled during the day or during off-peak hours, it can be hard to find times that work when you have school, work, or other responsibilities.
Enter your zip code, your desired search radius, and the events you want to include in your search. Once you make a search, you can further filter your results based on event type, date, and time to find exactly what you're looking for.
IceFinder currently only includes ice rinks in the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area, but we'd love to expand to other areas if people like the tool.
If you'd like to request a rink to be added, simply fill out our Rink Request Form with the rink's details, and we'll work to include it on the site as soon as possible.
