Welcome to the forum ” title=”Smiley” />

Thursday night would be a good time to turn up. 8pm is an intermediate level practice and at 9pm is an advanced practice. If you post back with a rough guide to what experience you have we may be able to point you in the direction of which practice to turn up to. From there we’ll be able to get an idea of what level you are at and which competition you should enter.

The Dunedin Ice Hockey League (DIHL) registration is over for 2007 unfortunately, so you’ll need to wait till next year to join. Although there is the option to play as a drop-in player in the leagues. See the DIHL page for more information … http://dunedinicehockey.hellyer.kiwi/dihl/%5B/url:14zhz6wu%5D

Other than that, there’s the occasional scrimmage held which is posted in this very topic.

Oh yeah, and we have lots of equipment lying round, mostly complete junk, but there should be enough ratty bits of gear to stop you getting totally munched during games. Just stop by the equipment shed before practice and someone will be able to help you out. If there’s no one in the equipment shed or you don’t know where it is then just ask anybody who looks vaguely like they know what’s going and they should be able to point you in the right direction.

cheers,
Ryan
