Congratulations to the Bad News Babes!

After a hard-fought double-elimination tournament between all four of our Women's Draft League teams, this crew came out on top!

We loved seeing the camaraderie among all the ladies this season - lots of laughter, plenty of grit, and some serious talent on the field. These women brought it all!

We hope everyone had a great season, and we’ll see you all back on the field next fall!

We’re looking for skate coaches!

Sawyer Arena’s Learn to Skate program is looking for coaches and coaching assistants for the Fall 2026–Early Spring 2027 season.

Our Learn to Skate program depends on dedicated coaches to make the season possible, and we’re currently looking for a few more people to join the team. If you have strong skating skills and enjoy working with kids, this is a great opportunity to share your love of skating and help young skaters build confidence on the ice.
