Default Building an indoor floor hockey "rink"

A friend of mine has dedicated a large room in his basement as a dedicated floor hockey rink (mostly for taking shots).

It is probably 20' x 10' (estimate).

He has fluorescent lights that are caged and the windows are covered in Plexiglas.


We want to cover the (lower) walls (i.e. the boards) with the same plastic covering that you see in a regular rink - complete with the yellow dasher along the bottom.


Does anyone know what the material is called that is layered on typical hocky rink boards? Where to buy it on-line?


Thanks CP

imagine one of us on that rink... head would be nearly touching the ceiling and I would have to turn on a dime.
I thought the oakridge odr was small...

Good for his kid though.

I use puck board to mimic ice for hockey photos when we can't do them on the real ice.

A 4x8' slab of 5/8" thick puckboard is about $50. I think that's the thinnest I found.

Got 9 sheets at Windsor Plywood. They had to order it in, but it was there next day.
