You are never too old to try out something new. Hockey is a great sport to pick up at any time because the rules are fairly easy to learn. The biggest athletic skill required is the ability to ice skate at a high level. The more complicated nuances of the game will be learned as you become a more skilled player. These are the four most important tips every new hockey player needs to follow.
Get the Right Equipment You will have a hard time comfortably playing hockey if you do not have the right equipment for your body. Most hockey players use ice skates that are one size smaller than their regular shoe size. The snug fit gives extra stability to your ankles, which results in more stability on the ice. You also need to make sure your stick is the proper size based on your height. Hockey stores generally have someone to help you find the perfect stick. davidgrislis.net/tips-for-new-hockey-players/
