Portman Hockey Flooding 101
1. Ice must be COMPLETELY CLEAN prior to flooding on all rinks by using either the Bobcat with the brush or the Zamboni. Brush and shovel around the edges or the boards which is critical because an ice ridge will form around the edge of the boards.
2. Either the two black hoses located in the warming shack or the 1 fires hose locate in the warming shackcan be used to flood. Whatever hose is used they NEED to be returned to their assigned storage area at the end of the shift.
3. Flood the rink using light EVEN coats. Even if it’s cold a ton of water doesn’t make “good” ice.
4. When you are done flooding.
5. Clean Up
6. Please! Please! Please! If you break anything please let me know or your crew leader. It happens. No big deal and we want to fix it ASAP. |
