thriving in neighboring Hong Kong thanks to the state-of-the-art Mega Ice rink.

attention but next door in Hong Kong winter sport is in full-swing at the city's
best and biggest ice rink.

Hong Kong-based sports company Mega Ice has announced that registration is now open
for the Mega Ice Hockey League for children aged 5-14. Games will take place on
Saturday and Sunday mornings starting on the weekend of September 20th and 21st.

Hong Kong's pristine 26 by 57 meter ice rink has been hopping all summer long with
hockey tournaments and leagues, as well as figure skating.

The Mega Ice Hockey League for adults kicked off in June after the Hong Kong 5s

championship.

sports for maintaining physical fitness, and it can be enjoyed for a lifetime from
ages 2 to 80 plus. It is also one of the best sports for children all year round.

Ice Skating Institute (ISI). The ISI Recreational Ice Skater Test Program was
developed and used as a worldwide standard for more than 40 years, and provides a
logical progression of skating skills' development.

The Mega Ice rink is situated in the Beehive atrium of MegaBox mall, and offers a
stunning view of Hong Kong's harbour through an impressive 30-meter wide glass
window.

international leagues. Mega Ice aims to bring world-class international skating

Track Speed Skating Championships to Hong Kong.
