learn to skate
We have donated gear kids can borrow to try out skating on Saturdays for Learn-to-Skate. Please RSVP so we know how many kids will be at the session in case we need more people to help out. All that is required for Learn-to-Skate are skates and a helmet. Please bring your own skates and helmet (bike helmet is fine), if you have them.
Fill out the Learn-to-Skate link below to help us figure out what size skates to have ready. Kids learning to skate may want to pick up a basic set of protective equipment while they are learning. Walmart, Target and Amazon usually have sets of protective skate/bike equipment for a decent price.

HOCKEY EQUIPMENT
If you have decided that you want to play some inline hockey, here is a list of required/recommended equipment.
REQUIRED
- Skates and Socks: preferably inline hockey skates and long socks
- Shinguards
- Hockey Helmet with face shield
- Elbow Pads
- Gloves
- Hockey Stick: usually needs to be cut to fit and determine if the player uses a right or left handed stick (may not be the same as which hand they use to write with). Usually comes in youth, jr, interm, and senior sizes.
- Water Bottle: preferably with a long straw, so kids don't have to remove their helmets to drink
- Jersey: may borrow if you don't have your own
RECOMMENDED
Please ask regarding gear we may have available.
