Hockey

 What is Hockey? 

Equipment:

  1. For hockey you will need a hockey stick
  2. you will need a tennis ball or a proper hockey ball
  3. something that resembles a goal
Safety:
  1. Your not a ninja so do NOT carry or swing the stick above your head.
  2. I recommend using a mouth gaurd so that your teeth do not fall out (optional).
  3. Be careful where you swing.
  4. The balls stay on the ground
I learnt how to keep more control over the ball when I am dribbling and when I am passing and shooting.
