Your child skates on a full-size 60x30 m indoor rink at Sport Society Mall in Mirdif, a 20 to 30 minute drive from Dubai Hills Estate outside peak hours. Groups run from U6 to U16, beginners included, rental gear waits at the rink. The first session is free for one child, all September.
WhatsApp opens with your message ready. Send your child's age and we come back with a time that fits the drive from Dubai Hills.
Every session this season runs at Sport Society Mall in Mirdif. Galaxy Arena, our own rink, is opening soon. Parking sits on site, so the walk from the car to the ice takes a couple of minutes.
Sport Society Mall in Mirdif sits east of Dubai Hills Estate, and the run there takes 20 to 30 minutes by car outside peak hours, mostly along Al Khail Road. Parking is on site at the mall. The ice is a full-size 60x30 m indoor sheet, so August and January look identical on the schedule, which is more than a football pitch or a padel court in the neighbourhood can promise.
Groups train at Sport Society Mall on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. U10 and U12 take the ice at 18:45, U14 and U16 at 20:00, which gives a Dubai Hills family time for homework and dinner before the drive, once the worst of the evening traffic has cleared. Weekends run in the morning: Sunday ice at 8:00 for U10 and U12, 9:15 for U14 and U16, with off-ice work on Saturday. U6 and U8 times are set for Galaxy Arena, which is opening soon, so send us a message and we confirm the current slot for the youngest players.
Five families from Dubai Hills Estate signed up for the 2026/27 season, and their kids skate with us every week. Across the academy 300+ players from 38 nations share the same locker room, so a child from Dubai Hills lines up with teammates from a dozen countries on day one. Galaxy also works in official partnership with the UAE Winter Sports Federation, and the IIHF 2027 Division II-A World Championship comes to Al Ain, so a real international tournament lands a drive away instead of a flight away.
A child can start from age 4 in U6 and stay with us through U16. U6 and U8 learn to skate, stop and handle a puck. U10 and U12 move into positions and small games. U14 and U16 play a full season with tournaments. Beginners join at any age, and plenty arrive having never worn skates. A full rental set of skates, stick, helmet and pads waits at the rink, so the first session needs nothing bought in advance. Body contact starts only at 12 to 14, and the pads cover a player from head to toe, which answers the question most parents ask first.
The first session is free for one child, all September. Bring warm clothes your child can move in and we handle the rest. After that the prices are open: AED 6,900 for term 1, AED 5,900 for term 2, AED 5,600 for term 3, or AED 17,500 for the full season, plus 5% VAT. The price page lists what each option covers, the 2026/27 season guide walks through the calendar group by group, and after-school hockey shows how training slots into a school week. The Kids Academy page covers the programme, and booking a session takes one tap.
The park and the boulevard empty out from May to September. The rink runs at the same temperature all twelve months.
