Ice going into Kinsmen Sportsplex soon as City of Moose Jaw announces facilities update

Mid-September to mark wide range of opening dates for city facilities, others under further review
The Kinsmen Sportsplex will be the first hockey arena in Moose Jaw to see ice installed this fall.

And you better believe it’s going to be a happening place — under current COVID-19 guidelines, of course.

The City of Moose Jaw announced Wednesday that the Sportsplex will be officially available for booking starting Sept. 14, with anyone interested in taking on an ice slot asked to e-mail [email protected] or call 306-694-4447 for rental inquiries.

A major caveat is attached to any ice usage, though, is teams and groups must comply with the Re-Open Saskatchewan Sports and Activity guidelines in order to ensure any chance of spreading the coronavirus is kept to a minimum.

The largest factor when it comes to holding games and practices is the number of individuals — including players, coaches, officials and anyone else involved in on-ice activities — is currently limited to 30 people at any one time, in compliance with the current Public Health Order as of Aug. 6.

Mosaic Place will be ready for bookings as of Oct. 9, and the Moose Jaw Ford Curling Centre will be open for business on Oct. 19. The multiplex facility will release more information on their plans and safety guidelines prior to opening.

No timeline has been established for the opening of the Bert Hunt and Wally Boshuck rinks in Pla-Mor Palace.

In addition, the YaraCentre turf will be available as of Sept. 14, along with early morning hours for the track and fitness centre. Operation will be Monday to Friday from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Those looking to use the facility are asked to book with the online recreation registration link at www.moosejaw.ca, with the City of Moose Jaw app or by calling 306-694-4560.
