HOCKEY HITS: TAKE CAUTION WHEN GIVING OR RECEIVING HOCKEY HITS
The number one rule of taking hockey hits is to keep your head up. Be aware of where your opponents are on the ice. NEVER stand 1-2 feet from the boards with your back turned, neck bent looking for the hockey puck in your skates and NEVER give hockey hits while a player is in this position. Use the boards as a buffer zone. Move in closer. This will help cushion hockey hits. Always purchase a high quality hockey helmet and wear a mouth guard. Mouth guards not only protect your teeth but help prevent concussions in hockey where hockey hits are inevitable. To take hockey hits properly stand firmly with legs shoulder length apart, knees slightly bent and lean your torso forward. Be wary of giving or receiving a "suicide pass" - a long cross ice pass with the rushing player's head turned back to receive the pass. These types of passes usually lead to big open ice hockey hits because the player is caught with their head down. NEVER hit a player from behind. These types of hockey hits are dirty and potentially lethal. Many hockey players' careers have ended because of hockey hits from behind. There is nothing wrong with hard hockey hits as long as the receiver can prepare him/herself to prevent injury. Go out and play hard, play fair, play hockey.
