COMPETITIVE HOCKEY

 

Hi I’m Hayes today I will be telling you about competitive hockey!

I play competitive hockey in the highest level/tier 1.

If you want to be in competitive hockey here’s some information.

Ok first if you do make it to competitive hockey you’re going to play against people your age.

Age 7’8 Novice

Age 9’10 Atom

Age 11’12 Peewee

Age 13’14 Bantam

Age 15’16’17 Midget

Second you’re not going to like what i’m about to say ok you need to drive a lot like for example if you’re going to one game it could take an hour and a half JUST FOR ONE GAME you guys are probably thinking but ya it’s worth it because hockey is a fun sport. Third you need to be ready for anything it could be a violent sport. I have gotten hurt once somebody fell on my head and you also need to be strong because the puck is hard and my teammates got hit in the leg before trust me it hurts.
