How to Try Hockey.....AT NO COST

Ok, maybe you will have to pay $10-$15.

The Des Moines Buccaneers have been gracious enough to provide ALOT of adult sized equipment to our store. This includes pants, gloves, shoulder pads, shin guards, etc. It is used stuff, but still can work.

Instead of selling these items (we may sell eventually), we are loaning them out FREE! We know there are many players wanting to try the sport, but are worried that they will buy all this equipment and then not like it. Although I believe that never happens as hockey is very addictive, here is a chance for newcomers to try at minimal cost. They may need to rent skates & pay for a Stick & Puck session, but that should be a few bucks. The Metro has hockey rental skates, and although they may not be the "best" it will still give a player a feel for the game.

We need current players to spread this word. Have potential players contact me and I will get them geared up. They will just fill out a form stating what they took and promise to give back. (Hockey players are very honest).

Start getting the word out!

Heres a video of what you may be able to do one day. I get goosebumps every time I watch how good somebody can get.
