NORTH ANDOVER, MA. - The Youth Center Ice Rink has been a popular spot in town for the last two winters. When the weather gets cold enough, the outside basketball court is flooded. The rink is open to the North Andover public when it’s not being used for Youth Center programming.

North Andover Youth and Recreation Services DO NOT allow ice hockey on our rink (except for middle school members during time specified below.) When the rink is in season, please feel free to skate until our outside lights turn off (Monday - Thursday, and Saturday at 8pm, Fridays at 7pm.)
