Athletes We produce a fine blend of athletes that learn to enjoy their talent and polish their ability. We encourage spirited activity, wholesome competition, sportsmanship, cameraderie and total body fitness. Success at competition is encouraged and rewarded. Safety Our ice is always freshly resurfaced, and mats are in position. Skaters wear the minimum safety equipment (knee pads, shin guards, cut-proof gloves, helmet, and a hockey-style neck-guard). Cut proof clothing is recommended as well as safety glasses. Skating behaviour on the ice is carefully monitored to avoid unsafe practices. PAR-Q The Quarks recommend safe exercise as an essential component of healthy living. We recommend all skaters review the PAR-Q form prior to signing up with us.
