For the Player
Both my kids wear these under their neck guards and they say they can actually feel the difference when they get hit. I swear by these for preventing concussions!

The best for hanging gear in hotel rooms or from the side of your car between games…

My kids love this tool for training on the deck or pond.

With two kids playing at a high level, we sharpen skates constantly. This has a big cost up front, but it’s more than paid for itself in the time we’ve had it.

A cool way for players to train off ice.
NHL Sense Arena | Off-Ice Hockey Training in Virtual Reality
For Mom
I love this heated fleece because it keeps me warm and I can wear it under a heavier coat for those REALLY cold rinks!
These keep my toes warm in the rink but aren’t so hot my feet are sweating. It’s a fine line!

No more sitting on freezing bleachers!

I love having personalized earrings to cheer on my kiddos!
Personalized Hockey Puck Earrings
When you can’t be there in person, LiveBarn is a great way to watch your kiddo play. Not every rink has it, and not every camera set up is great, but I love not having to miss out on the action!

I wear these to the rink with my long coat, thick socks, and Bean Boots.

My kids both did this one when they were younger and got a lot out of it.

Not really a camp, but these online mental performance sessions helped my son immensely. He swears by them and the fact that they’re online make them so convenient!
