Sled hockey is the adaptive form of ice hockey and is a fast-growing sport in the U.S. and around the world. Sled hockey is played like traditional hockey on a standard rink with regulation-sized goals, six players per team, and three fifteen-minute periods per game. Players sit in specially designed sleds that rest on skate blades. They use two short hockey sticks with blades on one end to control the puck while using metal picks on the other end of the sticks to propel their sleds across the ice. Sled hockey is fun and energetic at every level; it is fast-paced and every bit as physical as traditional hockey when played at the highest levels.

This event will be an introduction to the sport. We'll provide all the equipment and gear. Come prepared to learn about the sport and experience a new opportunity for Central Iowa.
