I am getting back into ice hockey after a head injury, and I would like to purchase the best helmet I can to protect myself. The highest price doesn’t mean the best protection. What brands are the best for safety? What features should I look for? I currently have a basic Bauer, child-size large. (I am petite.)

I am 29 years old and soon to turn 30 and want to start learning how to play ice hockey. I never had ice hockey in my town growing up but always wanted to learn. However, I’m wondering how difficult it is to learn how to skate and some of the basic skills involved in order to play at the recreational level with no prior experience. I was quite athletic and played sports growing up such as basketball, football, baseball, and floor hockey, but have not played organized sports in about 8-10 years. Am I kidding myself trying to learn how to play ice hockey now at 30 years old?? It sure seems like a great hobby to take up.

What are some inequalities in ice hockey? ex. - social class, gender, race, etc.

What class gets the most or least from the sport?

Are any positions in the game regulated by class considerations?

Is the audience participation oriented by any race, income, class, or gender consideration?

How about the managers, head coaches, and owners of the teams…is there any inequality present?

What does it cost to participate?

What does it pay on all levels of the sport?

Some other inequalities may include race, gender, age, income, education, class structure.

I have rather old-ish Louisville’s, and I was wondering if I would be wasting my time trying wear them while playing roller hockey on these new synthetic “ice” sheets. Do they slide at all? Wear down? Tear???

I’m mostly just worried about tearing them, they’re old, like I said, and have some leather parts.

Is it ALL just hockey with a hockey stick, only one uses roller skates, one uses ice skates & one is on the ground, on a field? And what’s the difference between these sports & lacrosse?

Also, would anyone know where an 8 year old girl can play any of these sports (particularly field hockey or lacrosse) in Suffolk County, New York?

Thanks!
