It is named after Father David Bauer, a Hockey Hall of Famer and hockey pioneer. Canada's defunct national touring team, the brainchild of Bauer, also staged tryouts there. The arena was built in 1963. 〔http://www.calgary.ca/CSPS/Recreation/Pages/Arenas/Father-David-Bauer-and-Norma-Bush.aspx〕 The arena uses the 200 ft by 100 ft (or Olympic) sized ice surface. A second arena, the ''Norma Bush Arena'' is attached to the facility, and has a 185 ft by 85 ft artificial ice surface.〔 〕 The arena is the home of the Calgary Mustangs of the Alberta Junior Hockey League and the Calgary Dinos university hockey team. It is also the home of Hockey Canada, the Western Hockey League major junior circuit, the ''AAA Midget Flames'' of the Alberta Midget Hockey League and is often used as the training facility for the Canadian Olympic and junior national teams.〔 FDB also hosts games for the annual Mac's AAA midget hockey tournament.
