Jmorc2003 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Assuming some of you guys play hockey, where are you playing hockey this summer (if at all)? I've taken the last year off, but and looking to play again. Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I'd actually like to get something semi-regular going in the Woodbridge area if anyone's interested. I'm trying to get in shape and bike riding, while enjoyable, gets monotonous after awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exit56 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 i've been off for almost 2 years after an ACL tear in a men's league game, but I'm looking for a team as well in the morris county area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devilsfan26 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) I run the adult league at Protec Ponds in Somerset, about ten minutes up Easton Ave from New Brunswick, exit 10 on I-287. Our summer league is starting in about a week and a half, if anyone is looking to join a team or bring their team to a different league, let me know! -8 games plus playoffs -2 team practices scheduled by the captain -Every team makes playoffs -Free jersey if needed -Stats, standings, and written game recaps on league website -$185 for skaters, $135 for goalies If interested you can register here: http://www.frontline-connect.com/programs-info.cfm?fac=protec&facid=1&levelid=0&seasonid=0&dateid=0&programid=6&uid=0 We are also running a tournament in August sponsored by Freddy's sports bar just up the street from the rink. -C Division: August 3-5 -A Division: August 10-12 -B Division: August 10-12 -Minimum three games -Top four teams advance to playoffs -Prize pack sponsored by Freddy's Sports Bar & Grill -Specials at Freddy's all weekend for tournament participants -$1000 team fee, $850 if signed up before 7/29 In addition, I will be running a broomball league at the rink too from mid-July to late-August. What is Broomball? Broomball is a fun way to beat the heat while getting some exercise this summer! Broomball is a winter sport played in ice arenas and community parks throughout the world. It is a game very similar to hockey in its formation and rules, but is not played with sticks or skates. A player uses a broom to maneuver a six-inch diameter ball up and down the ice. Not a good skater? No problem! Broomball is played on sneakers, anyone can play! Enjoy a hockey alternative this summer or bring some buddies to get them interested in hockey without the high cost or learning curve. -Games are played on the mini rinks -Saturdays between 4:00 and 5:15 -League meeting July 14th -League runs July 21st to August 25th -Teams will play three 20-minute games each Saturday -15 regular season games, each team makes playoffs -Helmet, broom, and sneakers are required -$80, includes jersey We also have open hockey on Saturdays from 10am to 11:45. $15 for skaters, goalies are free. Any questions feel free to ask me! Edited June 29, 2012 by devilsfan26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovys Puck Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Does anyone live in the Dallas metroplex (DFW) by chance? I would love to find a league down here but hockey just isn't as popular down here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucifer91 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I play Roller hockey at ISCA, have been for a good decade, however, that might be coming to an end after this current season now that they 'terminated' two of my good friends from the team and they are no longer allowed to play at ISCA. I might be 'moving my talents' to Skylands in northern jers for some ice hockey in the fall or as soon as i buy some new ice hockey equipment. I might also still play some roller in morristown. I rarely play outdoor roller because the wear and tear on my equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if there are any other rinks near me. Or I might just eventually lose it and bring nets and set up a game in the Kean parking lot at some point when I'm bored at work. It'll be like Clerks, only lamer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you play with actual brooms? The only time I ever played, we were provided with broomsticks that had small (barely larger than a hand), plastic triangles attached to their bottoms. That made sense since the ball was hard rubber (not flexible like a kickball). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagknife Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Friday night pickup games in Orangeburg, NY Usually have 6 guys at least for 3-on-3. Best night we had was 14. Occasionally play at Sport-o-Rama in Monsey, NY and even rarer i make it to Ice House in Hackensack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard there is an outdoor rink behind a school somewhere in Clark or Cranford. As for Fords Park (Woodbridge) I called the county parks department and they said it should be done in September and will have a smooth blue surface, so I think it will be pretty nice.

Yeah ours isn't going to be too official, it's pretty much all broomball beginners looking for something fun to do in the summer. Real broomball is played with the thing you described but players in our league can use that if they have one or just bring any old broom.
