An international women’s ice hockey weekend takes place at the Galleria Ice Rink on Sunday, 7 October.
“Women’s ice hockey is one of the fastest growing sports in the world thanks to events like this one and similar programmes that are being run in many countries,” said Michelle Murphy of DurbaKnights.
“This weekend is an opportunity for girls from eight-years-old and older to try ice hockey.” The event is from 8.30am to 9.30am and the cost is R50 per person, which includes a T-shirt and goodie bag.
