REQUIRED EQUIPMENT TO PLAY HOCKEY
Full equipment is required for participation in all age categories.
Players must be in full equipment whenever on the ice.
Three important factors should be stressed when evaluating hockey equipment:
A) that the equipment is in good condition,
B) that the equipment is well maintained throughout its life span and
C) that the equipment fits properly. ‘Hand-me-downs’ are a great way to save money but be sure to carefully inspect the items to ensure they are safe to wear.
