Sledge Hockey Sticks!
Sledge Hockey Sticks are made with the same materials as an Ice Hockey Stick. The differences in the design are:
- They are much smaller
- The average length is about 24" long, and can range depending on the size of the player
- They have a metal pick at one end
- There are diferent types. Some are like the front of a figure skate, and some are like a crown(shown below).
- The blade design has less of an angle to it
- This is because the player is closer to the ice and the angle of an Ice Hockey Stick is far to great. The sticks in sledge hockey are held almost flat on the ice.
- You need two of them to play
- Its exactly like cross country skiing.
The sticks shown below are a prime example of a typical design.
The average cost for a pair of sledge hockey sticks start from $30.00 and up. The length of the stick is usually standard and cut down to suit the player.
