Streatham ice rink

[crescent]

Hi- when I search on the internet I don't seem to get anywhere... It closed, relocated to Brixton... But then relocated back? Does anyone know any contact details - I would be so grateful!

The new ice rink/leisure centre is in Streatham, more or less where it used to be (on the High Street, close to Streatham Common). There's an enormous new Tesco right next door, you can't miss it. I think you'll have to go and have a look, they don't seem to answer to email and I haven't been able to get hold of a phone number. I did go and see it last Saturday and it is very nice indeed. Huge ice rink, very beautiful!

Are the Redskins returning?

Oh, the Redskins are back - and then some! On a bit of a surge at the moment with a few victories against some better-resourced teams, including their arch-nemeses, those bad boys from Invicta. Attendances seem to be well up, which is good news for everyone - more of an atmosphere and more income to balance the books. There seems to still be a healthy plexi-banging tradition kept up, so even though it's all new, old times aren't far away. Worth a visit one weekend.

Nearly impossible to find online.

I had my google-session some days ago:

Thank you. I too have been trying to find on-line info re the Ice skating.

Can you still drink beer while you watch the violence?

I don't suppose Gary Stefan is still the captain

I used to go and watch the Redskins occasionally back in the early 80s but stopped going after I was ejected for drinking (very copiously I might add) from a bottle of Johnny Walker Black Label, most of which I'd consumed before my arrival. Barstewards!

Used this number to get straight through on Monday afternoon 020 8677 5758. Very impressive new facility

Nope, no Gary Stefan but Joe Johnston's wearing the C - and Warren Rost, suited and booted, is the Coach. (if you're of an era to remember Gary, you may also be interested/sad to hear that Joe's grandfather, Alex, died last week) There is still a great sense of family about the team and now the Zamboni works, the ice is frozen and the spectators are warm it's deffo worth a visit. Invicta on Saturday, 5.30 face-off. Eat 'em raw.
