Ice Sports Tasmania Executive committee
Ice Sports Tasmania President
Dan Toohey
Dan is a passionate ice hockey goalie and has been involved with hockey since he was 10 years old, returning to the sport as a player in adult life. He has recently been on the Ice Hockey Tasmania board and helped to grow and modernise the sport in the state. Outside of hockey Dan runs a small gym in Moonah and is dedicated to helping people find their happy place in the exercise world. It was a natural extension to become involved in the Ice Sports Tasmania mission to bring a new Olympic facility and save ice sport and recreation for all current and future Tasmanians

Anna is passionate, energetic and highly committed to strengthening individuals and communities and is a skilled collaborator.

Kirra Taylerson
Following her mother's figure skating footsteps, Kirra has recently moved to Tasmania and joined the world of Adult Figure Skating. After finding out that the only rink in the state is at risk of re-development, Kirra has become committed to keeping Ice Sports alive and growing in Tasmania. Kirra works closely with the Tasmanian Figure Skating association and while only new to the skating world has put in every effort to be as involved as possible. As a more senior skater, Kirra sees the benefits of Figure Skating for the younger skating community and feels it would be devastating to see the sport disappear in Tasmania with the closure of the rink.
Natalie Rollings
Natalie is a mother to a devoted figure skater and also likes to skate recreationally herself. It is Natalie's view that no matter how casual or dedicated a person may be, skating should be accessible to everyone.
