i learned the basics like shooting back in high school in floor hockey, but after i finish my skating lessons this spring i'm signing up for those adult hockey classes the city provides. good way to know stick handling and skating (or running) with a puck in a non-competetive environment. 6 sessions for $50 here in surrey, which is pretty cheap.

it's one thing to play floor and street hockey, it's a whole different animal playing against people who came from actual organized hockey. it's a hard lesson i learned playing intramurals in BCIT. people who came from organized hockey just DOMINATE street hockey players, since they have the theory given to them. which is why i'm hoping some sort of small class can get me going further... i'm not saying 6 classes will turn you into the next gretzky, but building on those 6 classes is better than asking your buddies.

hopefully i can join a rec league next year.
