rink
Frozen playing surface
A rink is a smooth surface for skating or a building containing one: an ice rink, a roller rink.
The word extends to similar enclosed areas for other sports: a hockey rink, a curling rink.
In curling and lawn bowling, a rink also means a team or the lane of play itself.
We reserved the rink for a birthday party.
