Hockey Elbow Pad Sizing Explained
Choosing a stick is easier than it seems!
Gloves protect the hands, wrists, and fingers — and help your child grip the stick.
The helmet is the most important piece of safety equipment.
Proper Hockey Jersey Fit Explained
Every youth player must wear a BNQ-certified neck guard.
Shoulder pads protect the shoulders, upper chest, back, and upper arms.
Skates are one of the most important pieces of equipment, and they fit differently than shoes.
Hockey pants protect the hips, thighs, tailbone, and lower spine.
Hockey socks go over the shin pads and attach to the Velcro on the Jock/Jill shorts.
Shin pads protect everything from the knee down to the top of the skate.
There are two options: a Jock, which is a protective cup, or a Jill, which is a flatter pelvic protector.
The base layer is the “first layer” your child wears under their gear.
