Sharpen your skates, Victoria!

Not only will we be treated to a rare matinee Royals game this Sunday, you’ll have a chance to hit the ice with current team for one of their most loved traditions – Skate with the Players!

WHL stars, and maybe even a few future National Hockey League players, will join fans immediately following the contest for a post-game skate.

The Victoria Royals will return home from the road on Saturday for their last two of three games in a row – all versus the Vancouver Giants.

After the Royals battle the Vancouver Giants in a Saturday and Sunday set this weekend, the Barn on Blanshard will stay open for the post-game skate Sunday evening.

With a few new faces joining the Royals during the off season, now is the time to be out sharing a fresh sheet of ice and a leisurely skate while meeting the new guys.

The skate generally lasts around 45 minutes, and skate rentals are available.

The Royals have a jam-packed schedule coming up, including three games in three days – they face the Vancouver Giants on Friday in Langley, then two back-to-back contests versus the Giants at home on Saturday and Sunday.
