Ice Arena Anahein area

Any recommendations for ice arenas in CA, close to Anaheim/Irvine? Brazlilian group wants to rent a couple of hours to perform a clinic. Also if there is any team in the area willing to play friendly games (12 to 16yo). Thanks!

Anaheim Ice is a pretty nice facility. It has giant arched wooden rafters. It feels like a hockey rink.

Where in Brazil are you from? I've been to Rio de Janeiro and Salvador (bahia) and I don't remember any hockey there, but that doesn't mean anything as Brazil is a huge country..

I'm from São Paulo, which is the state with more teams in Brazil. Hockey is a small sport with about 1500 practicers countrywide. There are no pro players. Rio de Janeiro has a couple of teams. I never heard from a team in Salvador. i've being to a IIHF world cup in 2003 (Germany).

Thats awesome, I had no idea there was hockey there. I met a few people in Salvador that were from Sao Paulo, we were there for Carnival.. I love Brazil, can't wait to go back!
