Colorado Sled Hockey

Sled hockey is the adaptive form of ice hockey, a fast-growing sport in the U.S. and around the world. Sled hockey is played like traditional hockey on a standard rink with regulation-sized goals, six players per team, and three fifteen-minute periods per game. Players sit in specially designed sleds that rest on skate blades. They use two short hockey sticks with blades on one end to control the puck, and metal picks on the other end of the sticks to propel their sleds across the ice. Sled hockey is fun and energetic at every level; it is fast-paced and every bit as physical as traditional hockey. Sled hockey is played by people with physical disabilities or lower body impairments. Participating athletes may have leg amputations, spinal cord injuries, spina bifida, cerebral palsy, or other such impairments. Adult teams are allowed to have a few able-bodied players on the team, which is fun for families or friends. Colorado Sled Hockey prides itself on being inclusive!
