Hingham Hockey: A Beginners Guide to the Game, the Rules, and the Fun
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

I finally decided to try playing hockey, and it’s been quite a ride. It all started with just watching a few NHL games and thinking, “Hey, this looks fun!” So I decided to dive in and give it a shot.

First, I had to learn the basics. I mean, I knew absolutely nothing. So, I went online and started reading whatever I could find. Turns out, there’s a lot to it! Like, did you know the players can’t touch the ball with their feet? Except for the goalie, of course. And they can only use the flat side of the stick. Hockey has its own special language, with words like “face-off” and “power play.” It was like learning a whole new dialect.

Then came the part where I actually tried to play. Oh boy. I borrowed some gear from a friend and joined a beginner’s group. We practiced on the ice rink, trying to figure out how to skate and handle the stick at the same time. Most of the time, the five of us – three forwards and two defensemen – were just trying not to fall over, and we had another guy as our goalie, let me tell you, it’s harder than it looks!

  • Skating: It’s not as easy as walking. My ankles were all over the place.
  • Stickhandling: Trying to control the puck was like trying to catch a greased piglet.
  • Shooting: When I did manage to get the puck, shooting it accurately was a whole other challenge.

But you know what? Even though I was stumbling around and probably looked ridiculous, it was fun. We were all just a bunch of newbies, learning together and laughing at our mistakes. And when someone actually scored a goal, we all cheered like we’d won the championship.

The coach was really patient, teaching us the rules and some basic strategies. He kept emphasizing communication – talking to your teammates, letting them know where you are, and stuff like that. It’s not just about individual skill; it’s about working together as a team. I really felt it was true when I saw the NHL games.

It’s been a few weeks now, and I’m still not very good. But I’m getting better, slowly but surely. I can skate a little faster, handle the puck a bit more confidently, and sometimes even get a shot on goal. I even understand most of the game’s lingo now!

So yeah, that’s my hockey journey so far. It’s been a humbling, challenging, but also really enjoyable experience. If you’re thinking about trying it, I say go for it. Just be prepared to fall down a lot and maybe make a fool of yourself. But hey, that’s all part of the fun, right?
