Huntsville has long been able proclaim itself as the “Hockey Capital of the South,” and the Wilcoxon Iceplex is part of the reason. Not only does the city have a highly successful pro team (the Huntsville Havoc) and the only NCAA intercollegiate hockey team in the South (the University of Alabama in Huntsville Chargers) but there is a robust amateur program at Wilcoxon that has produced a pair of NHL players. The Iceplex has two sheets of ice and seating for up to 1,000. A recent renovation project has modernized the infrastructure and is adding more locker room space to enhance its role in hosting local and regional events.
