What is Inline Hockey? Inline hockey appears, at first glance, to simply be ice hockey on inline skates. However inline hockey is generally a less physical sport with some rule differences as well. Each team fields only four skaters (plus goaltender), rather than ice hockey's five. All of this adds up to a game focused more on skill and speed and less on strength and intimidation.
June - Ball league
We started playing in the ball league this month - playing with a ball rather than our usual ice hockey puck. It's very exciting as body contact is allowed. So far we have played 5 games, from which we had two wins. We beat the London Knights and the Havering Liberators. - Toby |
TECOM Group - new sponsor!
We're very pleased to have been generously sponsored by the TECOM Group in Chichester and Lancing (www.connect-es.com). Many thanks to Ashley! Toby & Guy |
