Aksarben Curling is committed to opening a dedicated curling community center to expand ice availability and programming, provide high quality curling ice, and better serve the community. Having a dedicated curling facility will help fulfill Aksarben Curling's mission to make curling a lifelong sport that can be enjoyed by all ages, skill levels, and physical abilities, and build an inclusive and welcoming community through the spirit of curling.
Aksarben Curling has signed a lease to open a facility at 7413 Irvington Road in early 2027. The facility can accommodate 5 sheets of curling ice (ie, 'lanes') and include a community ‘warm room’ for spectators to watch curling, for teams to socialize with their opponents, and for educational and community events. We’re excited about this project because it will enable Aksarben Curling to provide:
- High-quality curling-exclusive ice with consistent conditions where stones will curl both ways on every sheet (and no negative ice!).
- More ice time and leagues all-week long on weekdays, weeknights, and weekends.
- New and expanded programming including doubles, women’s events, and wheelchair/adaptive curling.
- More curling opportunities for young Nebraskans including youth, juniors, school curling clubs, and college curling clubs.
- A venue to host events including regional bonspiels, national tournaments, and community gatherings.
- More educational opportunities such as Learn to Curls, skills clinics, and Newcomer Instructional Leagues.
- Greater community partnerships with local nonprofits and schools.
- Practice time for curlers to improve their abilities and become more competitive.
- A dedicated social space to foster community and ‘broomstack’ after games.
