WHAT EQUIPMENT DOES MY CHILD NEED?

Each level requires a full set of hockey equipment to participate. The Rapids has a used gear inventory available to loan or donate to any player. Email the Equipment Coordinator for more details. 

Skates – Make sure your kids are properly fitted for skates.  Buying skates is much different than shoes and kids do not wear the same size as their shoe.

Hockey Socks - Provided by the Rapids

Helmet – Black helmet is preferred

Shin Guards

Supporter/cup/garter belt – These items are now integrated into one piece of equipment.

Breezers (pants)

Shoulder Pads

Elbow Pads
