The USA Hockey Arena is a multi-purpose arena in Plymouth Township, Michigan, opened in 1996. Originally known as the Compuware Sports Arena, its name was shortened to Compuware Arena on September 11, 2007, to better market the venue for non-sporting events it hosted.[4] It was renamed again to USA Hockey Arena in 2015 when the USA Hockey Foundation purchased the arena.[5]
