work I put into hockey. The off-ice training, conditioning and, lifting weights all the hours of intensity and hard work. All that work helps me to improve on being a better hockey player and becoming the best I can be. But sometimes people forgot the other side of the game beyond just exercising and playing. Communication, Team bonding, having fun and being leaders. This side of the game will always stay with you your whole life and even in the working business. This hockey season my coaches

whoosh of air flooding through the bars of my helmet as I glide across the ice. With each stride, I grow faster, stronger, and smarter. Hockey has occupied a crucial part of my personality for over two-thirds of my existence. I have grown up with my teammates, and we only improve as we continue playing together. A game during this year’s season defines how hockey has inspired me to become a leader. The score was one-to-one halfway through the third period. Hannah, our team’s newest member, flashed

him and he scores!!. Our bench clears everyone is yelling. All of a sudden I look at the referee and he’s blowing his whistle as if he has spotted a fire. He is waving his hands back and forth across his body and that is never good when it comes to hockey. The ref claims the puck didn’t cross the line. Everyone starts yelling at the ref instead of yelling for joy. Everyone knows there’s nothing you can do to change the refs mind. We all skare of the ice with our heads in hands. I sit down in our change

At the age of six I arrived at the “Flyers” monumental (at the time) hockey rink. All I saw was people crowding at the doors to get in. As I strolled up to the doors, I remember my teeth chattering, the cold caressing my face with its bitter fingers. Once to safety indoors, I was met with a burst of information, then guided to the family locker rooms where I was tailored then dressed. After being suited with the littlest jersey, I realized that the people helping me thought I was someone who actually

For more than a century, hockey historians have found that precisely tracing the sports origin is not only a difficult task but, a virtual impossibility. Therefore I can only try to deduce for myself, from the records, claims, and accounts, which are available to me, when, where, and by whom the first ice hockey was played. I’ll also discuss the early problems and obstacles that the NHL encountered. Plus I will also tell a little bit about early equipment, along with early game play and ice conditions

As we are lining up for drills in field hockey practice, one of my coaches, Marissa, looks over at me and asks, “Who is that all the way across the field in those red tights?” (B+) I respond, “Of course it is Casey, who else has as much team spirit that they would wear those tights to practice?.” Casey is dressed in red, metallic tights underneath a white skirt with a vibrant, blue long sleeve t-shirt; our spirit dress at practice is “America” in order to get excited for our game tomorrow at Phillips

Second year as an Under-10 Squirt level hockey player for the New Jersey Colonials ice hockey team proved to be a challenging and harrowing experience that shaped the course of my future hockey career. I was a determined, naïve child with fantasies of playing in the NHL when I grew older. The source of my troubles began with Coach Ruben, a relentless, unforgiving hockey coach. Coach Ruben was in charge of determining the AAA hockey team that I desperately wanted to make. Unfortunately, I would not

good. The UND hockey coach talked really fast and was hard to understand at times. I understand the video was shoot a long time ago, but trying to write and listen is very hard to do. I earned that I do not want to be a sports phycologist anytime soon it looks like a ton of work to perform this study. I learned how to pick out parses and demands of the coach while he was coaching. The most interesting part of this assignment was what he said to the players I have never seen a hockey practice just

think all sports are extremely different from each other, there are some similarities too. Soccer and Hockey are very competitive sports that require skilled goalies to block all shots and know where the ball is at all times. Even though soccer and hockey goalies have some differences they have similarities too. While hockey and soccer goalies have similarities, there are also some differences.
