Street children in the district, who are coming from poor families of mostly southeastern and eastern Anatolian origin with up to 10âÂÂ12 children, collected waste paper to get free tickets. However, some of them tried to enter without a ticket, caused trouble around the venue, threatened the employees and damaged the ice rink. Noticing the youngsters' interest in ice skating, the municipality officials gave them in the beginning free-of-charge sessions instead of calling in for further security measures. The increasing interest of the street children induced the district mayor Murat Aydñn to form an ice hockey team with the support of the Turkish Ice Hockey Federation (TBHF).
