Kids Hockey Equipment

This would be for a four year old boy.

I see kids hockey equipment at every garage sale I go to in the spring and summer.
Another place is Play It Again Sports.
Also try Ebay.
Also try the Yellow Pages under Sporting Goods.

www.ctvvancouverisland.ca VICTORIA - Hockey is Canada's most loved sport, but it is also one of the most expensive. You don't have to tell ...

My advice is never buy online unless you have already tried on the equipment elsewhere and know its what your kid wants. I've played competitive hockey for 16 years and the feel of the equipment is always the most important aspect. It can be great quality and the right size but if the equipment isn't comfortable or doesn't have that right feel i would never buy it. I'd try a local store i find the service at small stores is always better and the prices are usually very competitive if not try a bigger store like sportcheck.

My son and daughter are starting ice hockey this year and I want to know how much it would roughly cost for the two of them combined. I have no budget but don't get me to buy composite sticks, as I've already bought them some nice and light wood sticks. Thanks everyone!

BTW my son is 9 and my daughter is 8 and will be playing house league, not rep.
sexist much, Mike? but thanks for the info on my son.
Thanks for the answers guys. I went on hockey monkey, and it's gunna cost around $1300 including my 14 year old's sons new Warrior pro stock dolomite and and clearence easton s17.

Aleef don't listen to that sexist dude.

Since they are still young, you don't need to get these expensive brands. They will eventually grow up fast so you'll probably have to change their gear once in a while. Cheap equipment will do. The answer for the approximate price was given. Don't forget that in addition to the gear, you'll need to pay for the subscription, the uniform and the training camp (is there is one). But I would add some things.

You could go to places where they sell hockey gear that are not that expensive like Canadian Tire, Wal-Mart, or Dicks* (not sure).
You could also buy online on Hockeygiant, hockeymonkey, etc. Just make sure you know your kid's size before ordering. Now, most of online and local shops have a discount on their equipment because it's off season.
Another alternative would be to buy used, either at a store like Play it again sports or online on Ebay, Kijiji, or Craiglist. However if you use online it will take some time to be shipped.

It's a good thing you decided to share the passion of hockey. I didn't have that chance since my parents couldn't afford to get me into that sport. Good luck!

My kid is starting a hockey skills program and I got some hand me down equipment, but I don't know if the chest pad/shoulder pads fit right. How much of the belly should be covered by the chest pad?

The chest pads should allow room to move without being too loose and should come down an inch or two over the top of the pants - make sure they are pulled up high enough around the waist and tightened enough so they stay up. Also the shoulder pads will just meet or overlap the elbow pads if it's a proper fit. Welcome to the hockey mom/dad world. Maybe we'll see you at a game!

and I ran over his stick and broke it, can they make me pay for a new one?

Probably not. the law is different in each U.S. state na dalso Canadian province. The item was in a potentialy hazardous place and it could have done damage to a car or a pedestrian.
Complain to the city works department about dangerous debris in the road. They might have a word with the perisher's parents or cite them for breach of some city ordinance. Or better yet remove the items and cart them away. (especially if you complain fairly early in the morning.).
If that does not work. Placing red peppers flakes in the gloves may cause some rethinking. (the idea is not to get cought doing that.)
Good luck.
