Hockey helmet

dashed out the car and grabbed my hockey bag. I ran into the rink thinking about the game. I was determined that I was going to score a goal because it was my first game I would be playing in. I was so nervous I was drenched in sweat scared like watching a horror movie at night. I was think about the game, and did not know what to expect. Thinking about all those times I was practicing shooting a puck in the driveway. Also practicing on the ice, watching hockey games on tv and going to them. Out…

No one seemed to notice my whole body shaking like an earthquake. It was 4:30pm, the group before me had just gone, and there were butterflies in my stomach. They were fluttering all around and I couldn't seem to get them out. With all of the girls nervously in one room waiting to tryout, I could feel the tension in the air. Knowing only 12 of the girls can make the team it made the experience more nerve wracking. My hands were shaky and sweaty. I needed to fast forward time and see what was…

Although my main focus is on the effect of age on goalies, i’m as well comparing the effect of age on goalies versus players,…

need a skateboard of course, but what kind you get is all up to you. Also, you should get knee, elbow, and wrist pads. Anyone who is going to start skateboard should get a helmet and a pair if durable shoes. I personally, being the one prone to accidents, decided to start with a long board. Of course I have good shoes and a helmet. You should probably know what you need to do when you want to stop. Since there are no brakes, you’ll just have to step off the board on the run. Be careful not to…

each line to work a scheme to suit its personnel. On one team, I had a line with a skillful center and two strong stickhandling defensemen. We used a top overload (an umbrella) with that line. The two wingers were tall, strong kids who had lesser hockey skills. They took positions at the front of the net and attracted the opposing defensemen. Once attracted, I told our players to act as "tar babies" and not to let the defenseman loose again. (The term tar baby is from the Uncle Remus tales with…

Hockey in the desert Ice hockey is a sport almost unheard of in the city of Tucson, Arizona. There is the local college team, the Wildcats, but aside from that you have to drive through the middle of a scorching desert to get to the nearest city with an ice rink. And then of course there is me. Hockey is a big hobby of mine, and sadly I was unfortunate enough to grow up in the middle of a desert where hockey is not a big part of the culture. But that wasn’t going to stop me. My goal was to get…
