It's not every day that a hockey player gets to play in an outdoor rink!
Outdoor rinks like any other hockey rink with boards and a roof.
There are aluminum walls around a portion of the rink to protect the ice from rain and snow.
Not quite Pond Hockey, but still fun to have the outdoor experience!
If you look close I'm standing up not facing the boards.
To my left is Brandon's girlfriend.
The temperature was about 40F degrees and the wind wasn't bad.
Our team won 7-0!
Yay for the win! For years, I've considered playing with an informal outdoor women's team, and I told myself I would do it this year for sure, but then I was sick for weeks. Also, I thought it was more of an open air rink, not like this. Thanks for posting the pics!
ReplyDeleteIt still looks like an indoor rink :) YIPEE for a win!
ReplyDeleteI expected it to be more open too and was kinda disappointed with what I saw. I was expecting pond hockey like the winter classic. Ah well, it was still a cool experience! You should play! I would be your biggest fan!! :-D
ReplyDeleteOhhh...that's so sweet! Well, when/if I do, you'll be the first to know. I think the season's almost over, though, at least for outdoor hockey.
