I recall the ice rink from byone days with the 'Bali Hai' club upstairs. That was in a sorry state when I saw a feature on it on London news tv.

I lived in Bexley but I've a vague recollection of a Youth Club trip on a Saturday night to Streatham ice rink, where at some point the public session came to an end while the rink was prepared for an ice hockey match later in the evening. Even as I type it it seems unlikely, so can anyone verify this? It would have been circa 1972, 73

I love a bit of ice hockey, and used to watch Romford raiders until the rink closed and they now play at lea valley , however the brand new rink in the central Romford is coming along nicely, so the raiders should be back home next season. That's good news. Love a bit of hockey and am toying with the idea of watching Chelmsford this season.

In bygone days I think some who played ice hockey at the ice rink played 'Grice hockey' at Norbury Park and at other places.Used to be a Grice hockey league with teams from South London and Brighton.There was a very good team called 'Streatham Rangers'. Edited by Willo (18 Sep 2017 8.06pm)

Syd used to come stomping out of here and marching purposefully towards lads playing in the goalmouths !
