White Fantasy Ice Rinks All Over Greece
FROM WIKIPEDIA:
Since 1999 there is no more any rink in olympic size due to lack of funds.
The 2007-08 season saw the return of ice hockey when a small, temporary
rink was built in Athens. The following season saw an ice rink built
into a dis-used wrestling arena built for the 2004 Summer Olympics
but when the financial crisis hit the rink was closed down.
Ice sports are now limited to smaller rinks. There are two rinks
in Athens and another in Thessaloniki. Often teams have to play
early morning or late at night due to the fact that the rinks
are mostly used for public skating.
According to the
IIHF profile
Greece has three indoor ice hockey rinks.
