4. Before you go on the ice first you need to put on the hockey gear. You need a cup and then put on the knee pads, then the hockey socks, then the hockey pants, then the shoulder pads and the chest pads, then the elbow pads, and finally you put on the jersey. Next, put on the skates, then the helmet, then the gloves. Then you pick up your hockey stick and then you are ready to go on the ice.

5. The puck is one of the most important parts of hockey. You use it to score a goal and get a point. You use your stick to score or get a point. You use your stick to control the puck. The net is the place where you have to score. The problem is there is a goalie guarding the net the way you can score is you can make a little move with the puck so it can be easier to score on the goalie.

6. A penalty is where someone is not allowed to do something like tripping someone or pushing someone in the back. If you do that you go to this place called a penalty box. You sit in it for 2 minutes and the team who got the penalty loses the player for two minutes because, well, the guy is in the penalty box. The other team that got pushed or tripped keeps all the number of players that where originally on the ice, so they have a better chance to score.

7. There are many positions in hockey. The goalie pretects the net and tries not to let in a goal. The center does the face offs and always goes after the puck. The left wing goes after the puck on the left side and will try to score on the left side. The right wing goes after the puck on the right side and will try to score on the right side. Left defense guards the goalie on the left side if the puck goes up the boards. The left defense also shoots it back in the offensive zone. The right defense protects the goalie on the right side if the puck goes up the boards on the right side. The right defense shoots it back in to the offensive zone.

8. Why hockey is the best is because you can skate as fast as you can, you can do lots of tricks, check people, and meet new friends. You can play any version of hockey like field hockey, roller hockey and floor hockey. Hockey is a game for all ages.

9. Hockey in the Past: They did not where helmets in the past. Goalies wore weird looking goalie helmets in the past. The goalie pads where made out of brown leather in the past. They used square shaped pucks in the past. Hockey Today: They wear hockey helmets. They don’t have weird looking goalie helmets today. They have circle pucks today in hockey. HOCKEY IS AWESOME TODAY!

10.  Boards– it is the walls in hockey they are the walls.  Checking– it is you push or shove someone in to the boards.  Puck - It is the thing you use it is like the football in football or the soccer ball in soccer.  Jearsey – it is the shirt you put on under all of your pads and geer.  Icing – icing is where you shoot the puck all the way down the ice.
