Killarney's 2010 Olympic training rink

Killarney Rink was newly constructed as an Olympic ice rink for the 2010 Winter Olympics. During the Games it was used for speed skating training sessions, and only afterward was it opened for public use. The community centre's earlier arena had been the home floor of the Senior B Vancouver Burrards box lacrosse team until they were forced out after the 2006 season.

The rink was built to LEED Gold certification, with a lobby that connects it to Killarney Community Centre and its pool. The ice surface is NHL size, 200 by 85 feet, with seating for 150, and it is one of the eight rinks the city runs.

The figure-skating tenant is older than the building. The Killarney Centre Figure Skating Club was incorporated as a non-profit society in 1964 and is still run by volunteers; it is a Skate Canada sanctioned club with programs from beginner to competitive, and this rink is its home. Drop-in skating, hockey and stick and puck sessions fill the rest of the ice.
