Overview
Leisure Rinks was built in 1973 and opened in late 1973 at a time when there were 22 Ice Rinks in the planning stages to be built in Western New York. Leisure was the ONLY ONE of these projects, built privately, to survive. Over the years Leisure has been home to the Buffalo Sabres (practice ice), the West Seneca Cougars Junior A team, District V youth association among others. It is now the home of one of the fastest growing youth groups in NY, the Southtowns Stars.
Leisure Rinks also was the home of the Buffalo Sabres hockey school, which ran for 8 weeks each year in the mid 1970's. At its peak the school hosted more than 900 students and featured such instructors as Rene Robert, Richard Martin, Don Luce and Director and Buffalo Sabre Captain Gerry Meehan among others. Leisure was also where the Buffalo Sabres practiced for more than 8 years.
