Sled Hockey & Ice Skating... Put your disability on ice...

"Hockey is for everyBODY"


The Ice Program is made possible through the Great Falls Community Ice Plex


What is sled Hockey?

Sled hockey follows most of the typical ice hockey rules with the exception some of the equipment. Players sit in specially designed sleds that sit on top of two hockey skate blades. There are two sticks for each player instead of one and the sticks have metal pics on the butt end for players to propel themselves. Sled hockey is rapidly growing in the US and players are "hooked" once they touch the ice the first time.

Ice Skating

Skate rentals will be available. Walkers / wheelchairs will be allowed on the ice.
