Rules of the Rink – Kensington Valley Hockey Association

This page contains general information and rink policies passed along from rink management to keep our players, coaches, trainers, parents and siblings safe both on and off the ice as well as keep everything organized and up to date!

The BIGGBY Coffee Ice Cube is separate from the Kensington Valley Hockey Association. From the front office, up to Top Shelf and back to the Zamboni drivers, they are assisting us and the other renters of ice in the facility and keep things running smooth. They also administer all adult leagues, open skating, sticks/pucks sessions, and private rentals.

For questions related to these programs, to book ice time or to find Open Skating / Sticks & Pucks schedules

Meeting Space, Team Parties & Home Games

If you need to reserve a meeting room at the Brighton rink, please email sydney@biggbycoffeeicecube.com and office@biggbycoffeeicecube.com with the date, time and which room you are asking to reserve. You can reserve the party room in front of Top Shelf or the Board room located at the top of the South rink West bleachers. Both rooms have a television for viewing game footage.

If you'd like to host a team party in the restaurant or party room with food, please email veronica@biggbycoffeeicecube.com and she will get in touch with options and timing.

When you schedule a home game, please email sydney@biggbycoffeeicecube.com and office@biggbycoffeeicecube.com to let them know the date, time and rink of the scheduled game as well as your opponent so that an extra locker room can be added to the ice time and the rink schedule board can be updated with your opponent's name well in advance of your game day.

If you sell or trade your ice to another team, please also email sydney@biggbycoffeeicecube.com and office@biggbycoffeeicecube.com to let them know it was sold so they can update the schedule board with the new team's name .

RULES of the RINK!

Players should not enter the ice surface while the Zamboni is on the ice. There will be no sitting on the arena dasher board during resurfacing.

No players should enter the ice surface without an official or coach entering the ice first and AFTER the Zamboni doors have shut.

Everyone is required to provide the office a set of keys or driver's license in exchange for locker room keys. You should be locking your room when on the ice. DO NOT LEAVE LOCKER ROOM KEYS IN THE DOOR! The locker room policy is below for review.

Anytime there is a game going on, the front office will usually turn on the heaters automatically. The heaters are not super efficient. We recommend that people do not rely on the heaters being operational but rather dress warm in layers and bring a blanket to ensure that they are comfy!

When temperatures are over 65 degrees, starting in the Spring and continuing through the summer, the heaters will not be turned on. This is to ensure the ice stays in good shape.

The Zamboni Room, storage area and the tunnel entrances are "off limits"

Standing on arena seats and benches is not allowed.

KVHA teams who will be hosting visiting teams will be responsible for relaying the arena rules to their visitors.

Qualified individuals ONLY may use the scoreboard.

For safety purposes, all non-hockey playing children should never be left unattended at the Ice Arena. We ask that parents please keep their children with them at all times. Floor hockey is not allowed in the rink.

If all do their part we can look forward to a SAFE and ENJOYABLE hockey season.
