Walking into Panthers IceDen in Coral Springs feels a little like stepping into South Florida…read morehockey history. Sure, the Florida Panthers no longer use this as their primary practice facility, but let's not overlook the fact that this building was literally designed to train a professional hockey team... a Stanley Cup-winning one at that. That alone gives the place some cool factor. The facility has three professional-sized rinks, the ice itself is very well maintained, and there's constantly something happening here. Beer leagues for just about every skill level, kids learning to skate, public skate sessions, hockey parents living exclusively on caffeine and hope... it's got that lively community rink atmosphere that makes places like this fun even if you're just there to watch. In my case, I was there to bring my grandsons to see their dad play hockey for the first time, which already made the experience special before we even stepped inside. And honestly, the staff helped make it even better. Everyone I interacted with was friendly and genuinely helpful. Since the place has multiple rinks running simultaneously, I needed help figuring out where we were supposed to be, and the staff guided us without making me feel like I'd wandered into the NHL combine by mistake. Then came my favorite moment. I ordered chicken nuggets during the game, and instead of making me stand around waiting and risk missing part of my son's game, one of the staff members actually brought the order over to me. That's the kind of small gesture people remember. The overall atmosphere here is friendly, welcoming, and very community-oriented. The building itself is clean and well-kept, even if it's starting to show its age a little compared to the Panthers' newer and shinier facilities elsewhere. Is it the fanciest rink complex ever built? No. But honestly, that's part of the charm. It feels authentic. Functional. Comfortable. Like a real hockey rink instead of a corporate showroom that just happens to have ice in it. Four stars (maybe because I'm a longtime Panthers fanatic?). A little aged and a little limited in spots, but absolutely a place worth checking out whether you're playing, skating, or just introducing the next generation to hockey.

Came here with my wife to sit at the upstairs bar called Panthers Point to have a beer and watch the pros, figure skating and hockey league camp in action but sadly was closed so had to watch from the lower level. My son plays here in the adult league at night. It was pretty exciting knowing that the Florida Panthers actually practice here. The other side of the den was ice skating open to the public for $24.00 with an optional $6.00 skate rental. In order to skate, they provide a digital QR Code to scan and create a Daysmart account with a digital waiver to sign. It was actually very cold walking around and not even on the ice. Basic food and drinks are offered at the snack bar near the entrance. Fun place to skate or just relax and watch the skaters in action on the ice. Dont forget to bring a warm jacket to deal with the frigid temperature.

They have multiple baseball fields, a little exercise spot with some machines, a nice playground for kids, and the best is the covered open field with artificial grass.

Definitely worth checking out if you have kids and want to let them just run around! I saw a vending machine as well that takes cards and cash.

Adjacent to the Tamarac Park Recreation Center is the Tamarac Multipurpose Center. The facility has a gymnasium, meeting rooms, teen council, art room, restroom, and locker rooms.

My 11 year old daughter has been taking group skating lessons for 3 weeks now and she loves it. The…read morestaff are very friendly and they are really good with the kids. I have even seen some adults out on the ice learning to skate too. The class is 45 minutes long. The instructors start off with some warm up exercises to the beat of some music and this lasts about 5 minutes. The music is then turned off and they break the students up in groups which is based on their experience levels. They then work on different techniques; starting, stopping, going backwards etc. That lasts 35 minutes. The final 5 minutes is free skate with the music back on and everyone skates in a big circle. Pure fun. I forgot how much I paid for the lessons, but I think it was in the 100 range for 4 lessons. The sessions are usually 8 weeks long, but my daughter started in middle so we were prorated. The reason why I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 was because the rental skates suck. The skates are beat up and the blades are dull. Beyond that the lessons are solid. Remember to tell them Dan sent you and bring a jacket because it's cold in there:)

The woman at the front window was really nice and help us understand their weekly specials as well as sessions that they offer: On Wed. nights they have personal one-on-one training for Couples or people over 21 in which they close of the back end of the main ice rink and teach you how to skate or brush up on ice skating. The price? $10 per person! Better yet, after your 1 hour session, you get a free draft beer upstairs in their sports lounge! That's right they have a full bar upstairs and best of all they offer $1 draft beers as well as food. If that isn't you're thing, you are free to visit the other ice rink at the opposite end of the complex and check out local ice hockey teams playing or if you have kids, they offer a whole slew of children's activities, from learning how to skate, figure skating, ice hockey and, they even offer afterschool care as well as skatecamp for kids. Be forewarned though, it is a little chilly inside so you may want to wear/bring a sweater.
