Tip #1 - Find equipment that fits comfortably.

I have always found that equipment that fits properly is the most comfortable as well as protective. As players get older, hockey gets more physical. This does not necessarily mean you need bigger equipment. Skates are the most important piece. For the best protection and on ice success, find a pair of skates that fit well, are supportive and protective as well. I like them at least one size smaller than my shoe size, but everyone is different! Lastly, your stick is also a big part. The length is always your choice, but know that in most cases, short sticks are good for puck handling and long sticks are better for shooting.
