The Washington Capitals have completed a refurbishment of two in-line hockey rinks at Oatesdale Park in Martinsburg, West Virginia, according to the Martinsburg-Berkeley County Parks & Recreation Facebook page. Martinsburg is 77 miles northwest of Washington DC and has a burgeoning hockey scene.

The rinks are made out of blue Mylec flooring, a smooth surface that allows drainage, and has the Capitals logo at center ice.

The Capitals invested $194k into the upgrades.

Beyond the floors, the walls and fencing are new. There are also new goals.

The Park’s Facebook page hopes that the renovation helps improve the hockey leagues they already have and generate more interest from local hockey fans who would like to try the sport out.

The Washington Capitals will also be providing street hockey equipment to local schools and we will be celebrating the improvements in the early fall.
