A self-standing portable ice skating rink structure that does not penetrate the underlying surface and generally requires no tools or hardware for installation is provided. The ice skating rink structure includes a perimeter component and one or more tension members. The perimeter component can include one or more board holding members and/or one or more optionally interlocking side boards.

A self-standing modular structure support is provided for a self-standing structure having a perimeter component. The self-standing structure support comprises a first member, the first member comprising a perimeter component receiving portion; a second member, being disposed, during use of the self-standing modular structure, in a generally horizontal plane, the second member extending, during the use, outwardly from an exterior surface of the perimeter component; and a third member, the third member being configured to detachably connect the first member to the second member; the first member being supported, during the use, on the second member; the support being configured to support the perimeter component without use of straps and without use of ground engaging projections when the perimeter component is received within a perimeter component receiving portion of the first member. The perimeter component can comprise a plurality of side panels. The structure can further support floor tiles.

A retaining wall system for elevating a retaining wall panel of a portable ice skating rink. The retaining wall system includes a first support member and a second support member spaced apart from the first support member. The retaining wall system includes a flexible sheet extending between the first support member and the second support member. The retaining wall system includes a water impermeable liner supported by the flexible sheet. A support member for elevating a retaining wall panel of a portable ice skating rink. The support member includes a base arrangement configured to engage a mounting surface and a height elevating section extending from the base arrangement. The height elevating section having a first receiving area configured to receive a wall panel. A surface extends between the base arrangement and the height elevating section. The surface has a plurality of mounting areas configured to receive a lateral brace member.

Ice rink assemblies include a plurality of panels and support brackets. Each support bracket may include a floor support and an upright coupled to the floor support. The upright may include a central body, a plurality of wings extending laterally outward from the central body, and a slot formed in at least one wing. At least one fastener may extend through each panel, and may be positioned within a respective slot associated with a respective support bracket to couple a panel to the support bracket. Methods of assembling ice rinks may include positioning at least one fastener through a panel and into a respective slot associated with a support bracket, and tightening the fastener to constrict the fastener and the panel against the support bracket. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.
