While Arizona may be famous for its sunny deserts and stunning mountains, it's also become a hidden gem for hockey fans! Although the state no longer has an NHL team (goodbye, Arizona Coyotes), the hockey scene here is stronger than ever. Arizona boasts a thriving college league, along with numerous minor and youth leagues throughout the state. Whether you're looking to catch an exciting college game, join a league, or just enjoy some recreational skating, Arizona offers something for every hockey enthusiast.
College Hockey in Arizona
For college hockey fans, Arizona has a lot to offer. The Arizona State University Sun Devils (ASU) and the University of Arizona Wildcats (UA) both compete in NCAA Division I, bringing high-energy action to the rink. The Sun Devils call the Mullett Arena in Tempe home, while the Wildcats and the Tucson Roadrunners play at the Tucson Convention Center. These teams make Arizona an exciting destination for college hockey, where you can experience the thrill of the game in a truly unique setting.
Places to Skate and Hockey Venues
If you're eager to hit the ice yourself, Arizona has plenty of rinks where you can skate or play. From Scottsdale to Tucson, you'll find rinks offering public skating sessions, recreational hockey leagues, and skating lessons for all ages and abilities. Whether you're a seasoned player or a first-timer, the rinks provide a welcoming space for everyone to enjoy the sport. Arizona's ice hockey community is growing, and there's no better time to lace up your skates and join the action!
