Ray Twinney Complex



Ray Twinney Complex

The Ray Twinney Complex, formerly known as the Newmarket Recreational Complex, is a multi-purpose recreational facility in the southwest portion of Newmarket, Ontario, built in 1985. The complex was named for former Newmarket mayor Ray Twinney.

The complex includes two ice pads, a swimming pool which includes a wading pool and a hot tub, two conference rooms, one lighted outdoor multi-purpose sports field, two soccer pitches, and three baseball / softball diamonds.

The main arena has 3,700 seats. It is the current home rink of the Newmarket Hurricanes of the Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League, and has also been home to the short-lived Newmarket Royals Ontario Hockey League team in the mid-1990's and Newmarket Saints AHL club. The second arena is currently home to the Newmarket Figure Skating Club and its Iced Energy Synchronized Skating Teams.
