Welcome to Olympic Ice Sports Club

Building skills, confidence, and speed on the ice in Queenstown.

All Skill Levels Welcome

No prior speed skating experience required! Complete beginners, public session skaters, and experienced skaters are all welcome so long as they're old enough to follow safety instructions!

Safety & Equipment

We provide crash mats and all the standard safety gear for skaters on their free trials! Our sessions are structured and safety minded, with various sized skating tracks to manage where and how people should be skating around the rink.

Passionate Skating Community

Our club has a strong passion for skating fast and a commitment to fostering a supportive environment where skaters of all levels can improve and have fun on the ice.

Session Structure & Information

Learn how our ice sessions run and what you'll need to bring for your first visit!

Session Structure

Our sessions run two groups on the ice, one with our faster more experienced skaters around the outside of the rink, and one group with our new skaters working primary around the centre of the rink. All our skaters skate in an anti-clockwise direction which keeps the ice traffic predictable and safe to push your skating abilities!
