Northwell Health Ice Center is a multipurpose ice hockey facility in East Meadow, New York, containing two regulation-sized NHL rinks and one outdoor recreational rink. It is owned and operated by the New York Islanders, an NHL team, and is used primarily by the local community for a variety of reasons, including 'learning to skate', house leagues and summer camps.

The venue opened as Twin Rinks Ice Center in 2014, which was a partnership between Nassau County and investors Joel Friedman, Chris Ferraro and Peter Ferraro. The owners subsequently filed for bankruptcy in June 2015 and the ice center was taken over by former Islanders owner Charles Wang, who turned it into the team's practice facility beginning in 2016.^[1]^[2]^[3]

After founding both a men's and women's ice hockey team, Long Island University reached an agreement with the New York Islanders to use both the Northwell Health Ice Center and Islanders Iceworks as their home rinks.^[4]
