- Neck guard (must be BNQ-certified)
- Shoulder pads
- Elbow pads
- Gloves
- Groin guard (jock/jill/cup)
- Hockey pants
- Shin pads
- Hockey socks
- Skates
- Hockey stick
- Practice jersey
- Equipment bag
Optional, non-essential items that can make the hockey experience a little better/easier are:
- Skate guards
- Water bottle
- Pucks
- Stick tape
- Sock tape/shin pad straps
- Spare stick
- Spare laces
- Stick wax
RESPECT IN SPORT PARENTS
The Respect in Sport Parent Program helps define a standard of behaviour for all parents and create a more rewarding, safe and respectful environment for everyone involved. Parents want to do a great job supporting their kids. Respect in Sport provides parents with the tools to do just that.
This 1 hour online program is designed to reinforce a parents role in a child's activities, encouraging positive sport behaviours, and empowers parents to ensure the safety of their children, encourage positive and effective communication, and to enhance a child's fun and camaraderie of the activity.
Respect in Sport (RIS) Certification is a requirement of Didsbury Minor Hockey Association and Hockey Alberta. We are certain Respect in Sport will have a positive impact on our game and we are committed to keep the momentum going! The cost of the Respect in Sport Course for Parents is $12 (as at April 2019).
