Improving communities through sport
At Sports Facilities Companies, our mission is to boost the health and economic vitality of the communities we serve. We do this by delivering exceptional results at every stage of facility development and operation. In 2024, we acquired Firland Management to meet a growing need for ice rink management, optimization studies, and business planning.
As part of The Sports Facilities Companies, we bring together an expert team from a variety of industries, including former athletes, leadership from brands like the YMCA and Ironman, and members of several professional and college sports organizations.
We’re passionate about expanding access to sports, demonstrated through initiatives like Project Play 2020 and the SF Access Program, which provide affordable play opportunities for kids and families.
For over 20 years, we’ve partnered with over 3,000 communities, managing $15 billion in development and hosting 25 million annual visits. Our work has also generated $200 million in overnight hotel stays. Combining SFC’s expertise in recreation with Firland’s ice rink experience, we’re your go-to partner for any ice rink or ice arena projects.
None of this would be possible without our team’s dedication and commitment to core values like excellence, service, accountability, and collaboration, which guide us from concept planning to the grand opening and beyond. At SFC Ice Rinks, we live our mission every day.
