Another discovery . . .

In our relentless quest to identify every sports venue in Maryland, Team Terry relies on a number of sources, including event coordinators and facility operators. Sometimes, as with the discovery of the fencing community, we learn about activities via local papers.

That’s how we happened upon Sportsman’s Hall in Upperco. With 30,000 square feet and a capacity of 1300, Sportsman’s Hall is the largest roller skating rink on the East Coast. It has a floating maple floor and has been around since 1959.

It caters to the quad set, not bladers or boarders, so it’s safe for those of us older than the rink. It also features live organ music on some nights. How cool is that?

I haven’t been this excited since learning the Naval Academy has two natatoriums.

So once again, all you sports and rec fans out there – we rely on you to help us with our inventory of venues and calendar of events. Maryland has a wealth of resources to offer, and Sports Marketing wants to include everyone.
