The
Glice
Rink
To create an authentic game-like experience, it’s essential to have a suitable surface for performance, which is why we selected GLICE as our official rink provider. GLICE is an innovative surface that enhances your skating and skill development, serving as an excellent substitute for traditional ice. It provides the ideal platform for refining stick handling and shooting skills, facilitating sharp turns and rapid stops and starts. Our athletes can replicate movements authentically and test the latest Bauer innovations under realistic conditions. The connection between ice and GLICE is crucial, establishing it as an essential training resource and a fundamental component of our facilities. GLICE has the support of active NHL players, including Roman Josi, the captain of the Nashville Predators, and Nico Hischier, the captain of the New Jersey Devils.
