Questions and Answers

Q. Ice Hockey seems to be a very physical sport, would my child be safe?

A. Ice Hockey equipment is mandatory and affords a high level of protection and Special hockey is played very low contact. Absolutely no body-checking is allowed. The training is structured to ensure players of similar abilities are put together rather than the normal groupings by age. Many of the senior players love assisting the new players and the atmosphere amongst the team is very friendly.

Q.  I’m not sure we can attend all the training sessions due to other commitments. Is this a problem?

A. No, whilst we would love to see you, it’s not mandatory to attend every session.

Q. I’m worried the training sessions would be too long for my player, are there shorter ones?

A. The coaches are very experienced and will ensure that every player enjoys their session. As each players needs are different, those who need shorter sessions or frequent rests are catered for and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.

Q. I love the idea but your club is too far away for me to travel to. Is there another team more local to me?

A. Werewolves of London is currently the only special ice hockey team in London and another team has recently started in Slough, Berkshire (see links below for SPICE Jets) . We would love to see others start up. Remember the first program in the USA started with just two players so it can be done. If you are wanting to start a team in the UK, contact Mike Dwyer who can tell you the basics you will need to get started.
