NYTEX Sports Centre

uhm this place is poorly advertised! whenever someone wants to ice skate in dfw. we dont really have many options. its either parks, or galleria or grapevine. well this place is in NRH and thank god i live so close by haha. yes im a nerd and i love ice skating, none of my friends love it –_​_​– im freaking 25 and i think ive found where im having my 26^th birthday party hahahah now to disguise this! they have 2 rinks one for hockey games and one for general public use. and its really cheap. whats really cool is they have a bar attached to it that serves italian style food. the food is super greasy but who cares LOL maybe my heart. hahah
great place for ice skating! and a quick bite to eat and a bar for the parents who dont skate haha.

**Review for Brahmas Hockey**
We have been to a handful of Brahmas games and they are always entertaining. The atmosphere is just really fun. Pretty much every night is some special night — Armed Service Appreciation, skating with the players after the game, $ 1 hot dog night, kids’ night, etc. Tickets are reasonable: $ 8 – 22. Go watch a game — you’ll have fun!
You’ll probably want to wear warm clothes (hoodie, closed-​toed shoes, etc). The games get pretty loud, so just be aware for little ones.

Worst public skate ice ever! Not only was it extremely choppy, there was blood in several spots that one person was scraping. It was taking so long that you were more disgusted every time you skated by. The events screen out front said, «No Zam», and I expected it to be a little choppy, but we gave up pretty quickly doing anything more than skating very slowly because anytime you gained momentum, you’d hit a rough patch and have to slow down. My family agreed it was the worst ice we’d ever been on. Waste of time and money. Go to the Dr. Pepper Stars Center in Euless if you want to skate for enjoyment. We won’t be back for public skate here. I also felt sorry for the little girls out there trying take lessons.

So now we’ve been this facility in multiple settings I can say we are fans. My husband, sister in law & her boyfriend went to a roller derby game during my sister in laws fascination with the sport. We’ve been to a hockey game, open skate just for fun & most recently we had our end of cookies party here.
They have a ton of activities, camps, etc beyond the ice skating that I had originally been drawn to this place for.
Open skate was pretty fun & we had a groupon during winter wonder land that a friend & I used for our girls to skate.
Our girls had an amazing time at their party and they were very accommodating to our hyper kiddos.
My one «complant» is their off season open skate times during the week are in the middle of the school day so only available for kids younger than grade school or home school or on Friday nights. I think they have a mid day sat or Sunday time but we usually try to avoid crowds or when they may have a large party there. But during winter/​spring & I’m sure during summer break they will have extended hours.
