Short answer: your first session is free, so you can try ice hockey before spending a thing. After that, a Camp Galaxy drop-in lesson is 150 AED and the full programme is 500 AED — with rental gear available so there's no kit to buy. Here's the honest breakdown of what hockey actually costs at Galaxy, home arena Sport Society Mall, Mirdif.

Before any talk of prices, know this: your first trial session is free — for kids and adults, all levels, complete beginners welcome. Rental gear is on hand, so you can step on the ice and see if hockey is for you without spending a dirham. Most families decide whether to continue after that free session, not before.
One genuinely free session — no card, no commitment. Try it, then decide.
Skates, stick, helmet and pads are available to rent — nothing to buy to begin.
We'll tell you exactly what continuing costs for your age and frequency — no surprises.
Here are the published prices we can share straight up. Beyond these, regular lesson and membership costs depend on age group, how often you train and the programme — link below for a tailored quote.
Your very first session on the ice — for kids or adults, any level. The honest way to find out if hockey is for you before paying anything.
A single Camp Galaxy lesson when you want to train on a one-off basis or fit a session around your week. Pay per visit, no package needed.
The complete Camp Galaxy block running Tuesday to Friday — the better value if you want consistent ice time across the week rather than one-offs.
Looking for memberships, term or season costs? Those vary by age group, training frequency and programme, so we don't quote a single figure here. See the full prices page or message us on WhatsApp and we'll give you an exact number for your situation.
Hockey's cost isn't just ice time — it's coaching, facilities and gear. Here's what's covered and what makes the total go up or down.
No need to buy skates, stick, helmet or pads to start — rent them. Owning your own kit later is optional, and the pro-shop on the ground floor handles sharpening and gear when you're ready.
Training happens on two sheets of ice at Sport Society, Mirdif — a full-size main arena (60×30 m) and a training rink — so groups get proper ice time, not crowded sessions.
Sessions are led by professional coaches, not just open ice. You're paying for real instruction and development, which is what makes lessons worth it.
The single biggest factor in total cost is frequency. One drop-in is cheap; training several times a week costs more but is far better value per session — and that's where memberships come in.
Youth groups U6–U18 and adult classes are priced differently, and Camp Galaxy differs from regular term training. The right plan depends on the player.
Signing up siblings or a family changes the picture. Tell us who's playing and how often, and we'll build a plan that fits rather than charge a flat rate.
Compared with other structured kids' activities in Dubai — football academies, tennis coaching, swim programmes — ice hockey sits in a similar bracket, and in some ways works out friendlier to start. The first session is free, rental gear removes the usual upfront equipment outlay, and you only invest more as your child genuinely commits. You also get coached time on two indoor arenas in air-conditioned comfort year-round, which is rare in Dubai's climate. We won't quote competitors' prices, but the honest takeaway is simple: hockey is more accessible to try than most people assume.
