As a kid who couldn't afford to play hockey #allkidscanplay is an awesome thing. I didn't start playing ice hockey until I was in college and I took my extra tuition money to buy my first full set of equipment and have been playing beer league goalie every since (42 now). I hope you stick with it because it is very rewarding (frustrating) and you are off to a great start.
Waitaminute… If I would have known we were keeping stats, I would have brought my goal scoring stick! It was a blast working with you. Super happy you enjoyed your experience! Let’s do it again sometimes!
Hahah, I know full well that you were chucking pucks at me, not at the net :) It was a blast, and yes, definitely going to book another lesson with ya!
That looks like a lot of fun. I had a friend put me in his hockey goalie gear decades ago and out me on the ice. I hardly could skate and I sucked in net. However the next week I put him in a road hockey net... actually a lacrosse net and I showed him.how much he couldn't stop my shots there. (I played road hockey like a champ) it was fun Glad you got to do that. Cheers and thanks for another great video.
Wow! I can’t explain how much I love, appreciate, and relate to this video! I was a 46 year old rookie myself. I hope, like me, you were hooked and continue to find opportunities to gear up and get on the ice. Great video.
That's amazing, I had no idea how many of us old rookies there were out there! Just found your video today on r/hockeygoalies, and love the incredible collection of vintage gear you showcase. Happy to hear you enjoyed the video, and yes, I'm now hooked and building up my first set of new-to-me gear (nothing as cool as the vintage stuff, but ya gotta start somewhere!) and looking around Calgary for opportunities to get out on the ice. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
I am 46 and want to play hockey and be a goalie. I grew up in the Midwest and hockey wasn't very popular where I lived. Played football, soccer and baseball. Now I live in a more popular hockey city and want to play goalie once in my life.
Obviously, I'm going to tell you to go for it! Check around for a goalie school, somewhere that rents pads, or even a beer league goalie who might let you borrow their pads. Good luck!
