Kube Sports Complex

What Kube Sports Complex does

Kube Sports Complex is a single-site indoor recreational ice facility operating under Kube Sports Complex LLC in Hammond, Indiana, founded in 2021. The facility operates a primary skating surface branded as Ice Kube (via subsidiary Ice Kube LLC) and offers a portfolio of ice-based services including hourly and contract ice rentals, organized hockey leagues, skating instruction, public skating sessions, birthday parties, and event bookings. Programming is segmented across youth hockey (Little Blackhawks Learn to Play, Introduction to Hockey, Mohawks Hockey Club), adult hockey (KSAHL with C League and Super C League, ICE AGE noon hockey, Rat Hockey), scholastic hockey (Bishop Noll High School, Munster High School, Purdue University Northwest), and general skating classes and public sessions.

The facility uses a conventional facility-management stack rather than proprietary technology: EZFacility powers the self-service booking portal, CatchCorner by Sports Illustrated handles online ice rental reservations, and LiveBarn provides live streaming and 30-day on-demand game viewing. No proprietary software platform, mobile application, patents, or trademarks were identified in the available data. The technology layer is therefore primarily integration-based, leveraging third-party tools to digitize scheduling, booking, and remote viewing rather than building internally differentiated systems.

Kube Sports Complex operates as a direct-to-consumer recreational venue with four documented revenue streams: transaction-based ice time rentals (practice ice, stick and puck, open skate), subscription/recurring program and class fees, recurring league registrations (including seasonal Mohawks Hockey Club registrations), and transaction-based event and party bookings. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers acquire services through the facility's website, the EZFacility self-service portal, the CatchCorner booking platform, or by phone at (219) 230-7200. Acquisition channels are primarily organic — the website, Instagram and Facebook presence, and community partnerships with local schools, youth hockey organizations, and the Chicago Blackhawks Little Blackhawks program. The company employs approximately 5 people and operates through two wholly-owned subsidiaries (Ice Kube LLC and Up 4 One LLC), with no institutional investment, venture funding, or parent company identified.
