Sixteen Mile Sports Complex

Are you a local organization looking to safely reintroduce modified activities into our indoor facilities?

In response to the recent Provincial announcement to allow limited indoor sports and recreational fitness activities, the Town of Oakville is requesting that local community organizations connect and share their short term return-to-play/sport plans to determine eligibility.

Please note that eligible community organizations are required to have a return-to-play/sport plan that aligns with our established Return to Service Playbook. Private rentals are not permitted at this time.

Please email bookafacility@oakville.ca to discuss your future rental needs.

Sixteen Mile Sports Complex to allow Skate Oakville rentals by appointment-only

Following the Province's current guidelines regarding COVID-19, Sixteen Mile Sports Complex will allow Skate Oakville to book scheduled ice rentals by appointment-only starting June 22.

At this time, figure skating is the only ice sport with provincial approval to return to play. Ice sports groups should check with their local sports organization or governing body for COVID-19 updates.

As provincial guidelines are updated, the Town of Oakville will continue to look for opportunities to expand programming in a safe and responsible manner.

Visit Skate Oakville for related COVID-19 updates and information about their programs.
