Sled Hockey



Owen tried sled hockey for the first time tonite. If you have never seen sled hockey before, it is basically ice hockey played in narrow sleds on skates. The players sit in the sled and use short sticks to propel themselves across the ice. It is ALOT of work. Owen did so well and really seemed to enjoy it. There were several older players there who helped him along all evening and gave him lots of encouragement. I was just so proud of him for trying something new. It was very fun and we are hoping to do it again soon. Enjoy the pictures.

  1. First of all, Owen you look TOTALLY cool in your sled hockey gear! And it looked like you really got cruising on the ice. Wow! Your Aunt Beth is a TERRIBLE hockey player, but I love how fast you can go on the ice when it's first been resurfaced. I'm glad you're getting a chance to try playing hockey. If you keep playing, you'll be MUCH better than I could ever be!
