shutouts etc. Participation
is ils own reward for having
tried their best. We want the
kids to have fun without the
pressure from, the coaches
or adults to win.

: _ HOWIE MEEKER'S
sé ; HOCKEY BASICS
eae Following are a few notes
taken from the above book
_ which will help you to
choose the proper ‘ hocke
equipment for your child.
SKATES...

Two of the biggest han-
dicaps a young player has is
skates too big and blades too
soft. After checking 1800
boys, Meeker found that 39
percent had skates too big or
counters (heel area of
skate) too soft. Many
manufacturers are. moving
toward making the skate
boot of plastic so that this
most crucial area of the heel
gets proper Support. Fin-
ding a pair that’ provides
support plus a good steel
blade in the $11 to $15 range
isn't easy but there are a
few brands available.

air of skates he is wasting

doesn't necessarily mean

expensive. Skales must'

provide support, mobility
and protection. In Meeker’s
opinion there are no such
things as weak ankles.
Skates that do not have
proper support is the main
roblem or else they are too
ig for the child.

To sum up:

1. Strong support in the
counters or heel area is a
must. If this is soft, throw
oul the skates.

2, Strong support’ in the
ankle area, Leather inserts
or ankle supports will assist
greatly.

3. Make sure the skates
are not too big and wear
only one pair of light-socks,
{Many NHL players don't
wear any at all so that they
have full control of the
skate.) :

4. Gel through hardened

- blades. If they are only case
hardened it will mean ad-
ditional sharpening and
blades will wear out faster.
SKATE LACES... .

Make sure they are not to
long as they are not to be
wrapped around the ankle
or wunder the skate. This
eutts off the circulation,
Extra jace, if any, to be lied
in a big double bow, -

Make: sure that the top
three eyelets are tightened
the most as this is where you
get your main support.
Balance.of eyelets are to be
snug bat not too tight or they
will cut off your circulation.

(like your shoes) rather
than loop lacing. This gives
you even pressure at eyelets
which will readjust mside
the boot: with motion.
SORE TENDONS...

A piece of half inch foam
rubber under the tongue
near the top will greatly
help anyone with sore

tendons and this should .

always be done al the start

of a hockey season.
CARE OF YOUR
SKATES...

Recommends that new
skates get at least six coals
of clear shellac before they
are used. Special emphasis
on ihe seams to make them
waterproof. This is
especially important for
lower priced skates where
moisture will eventually
soften the counters. If you
have a nylon skate use a
good = silicone —- water
proofing. Make sure the
skate is dry before painting
with either.

CHOOSING A STICK...

Recommends that you
buy a stick with the highest
lie possible and the best
quality stick in that line that
you can afford. The *‘ife”’ is
the angle between the
handie and the ice. The
higher the lie the closer the
puck will be to his feet and
enable him io better control
the puck, The lie runs from 4
to 7 with number 7
recommended with a
straight blade for Minor
Hockey kids.

offer refused.

Most kid’s slicks are too
long. The old idea of cutting
il off at your chin in most
cases leave you with a stick

2to 4 inches too Jong. Chest
high would be the proper
measurement with skates
on, for the boy to properly
stickhandle, pass and choot,

After poor skates, a stick
that is too long is the next
most outrageous handicap
we can give a young player.

Very important to life of a
stick to double tape the heel
area of the blade with
plastic electrical tape which
lasts three times as long as
friction tape.
