    I’ve just received an email from Krissi Wood (Peewees team manager) saying that ALL weekday ice time until 7:30pm for the next two weeks has been booked up for speedskaters. The peewees turned up last night and got told they couldn’t use the rink!?

    Anyone know what’s going on here?

    Yes this is true. Everyone has either been bumped up or cancelled. Neil booked in the speedskaters and did not talk to anyone or let anyone know about this. So the midgets practice for this week at least has been bumped to 7:00pm and will be combined with the juniors. Further details about next week will have to be sorted out later.

    We really need the stadium to go to a system where you can look up bookings online. This happens too often, it’s not good enough.

    Its always the freaking speed skaters too, I don’t freaking care if you almost made the olympics we had the ice booked like months ago, so if you want to train here you train at the butthole times in the middle of the night, or early morning.

    The worst thing is I don’t think they individually have to pay, cos freaking SPARC fully funds them…..

    They don’t even have it posted on their own site.

    Maybe it’s national training or something, not Dunedin. I looked at the site too.

    Hans received my email via the rink email address and has left a hard copy on Neils desk. Hans didn’t know why we hadn’t been informed of the changes. Hopefully Neil will be able to shed light on the issue.

    I’m guessing by “Start time”, Hans meant “End Time”:

    The Dunedin Ice Stadium manager Neil Gamble phoned me today.
    According to him, we never booked the ice time the speed skaters are using. The speed skaters booked it over a year ago.

    So I’m not sure how this mess occurred now.

    It might be that the confusion arose from it being school holidays. DIHA said book every week, and he skipped school holidays. Who knows…
