As time went on & I became a farther myself I took my son to Billingham where I am pleased to say that same friendship building experience can still be found. Four years later I'm now the Manager of the Billingham Bombers under 10's Ice Hockey team and many of our players including myself & my son travel from the Durham area to play & train, It's a hugely followed sport & fantastic fun for the kids. I'm just so pleased that the youth of the area will be able to participate in one of the fastest sports the world has to offer & It would be great to here the words Durham Wasps once more. Great news you don't get everyday.

I'm now skating at Whitley Bay although as with Lisa we moved to Sunderland before Whitley. Long way to travel and petorl is so much at the moment. Can't wait to have a rink back in Durham, not planning to leave the ice anytime soon. I’ve been figure skating since I was 4 starting at Durham and I’m now 25.

I'm sure I'm not alone. There was a real spirit there and Im so glad it can now return... The benefits of a rink to the people of Durham can not be measured.
