WALKING HOCKEY

Walking Hockey offers a chance to play hockey with a lower physical impact, making it more accessible for a wider group of athletes. This program is available for everyone - across all ages, genders, and abilities. There's a way to play hockey for everyone! 

What is Walking Hockey?

Walking Hockey is a modified version of the game, played on a smaller field with a lighter ball. Sessions will consist of small warm-up activites followed by games, and participants are invited to stay after the sessions for a chance to chat and catch up with other players. 

Benefits of Walking Hockey include positive mental and social interaction, injury prevention/rehabilitation, physical activity, and community engagement.

You should try Walking Hockey if:

• You're new to the sport
• You used to play, but haven't in a while and want to get back in it
• You want to play hockey, but running isn't your vibe
• Your kids play, and you want to learn some basics to help enourage them
• You want to play with your whole family
• You don't want to experience a highly-competitive environment 
• You want to meet new people, make friends, and be part of a supportive community
• You just want to try something new!

We want to hear from you about what sessions you'd like to see! Whether it's a chat with a dietitian about meal planning and getting the most out of your grocery haul, easy at-home stretching options from a physiotherapist, a panel about how women's sport is changing the industry, or tips on how to live your healthiest life with health conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure  - if you want to hear it, we want to provide the opportunity!
