I learned how to play hockey through my neighbors kids when I was like 6 or something, they were like 4 years or so older and playing on teams, so I would just go next door and play some games with them and learn the basics, they even bought me 3 sticks for one of my birthdays which was really cool since I doubt I knew which sticks to buy and the dad also helped me cut a part of the stick so it's at perfect height for me. I continued to play street hockey with my friends until I was 14 then school started to take over. FML
I guess I was lucky enough to have skilled players next door but too bad my family didn't know enough English to enroll me into hockey teams

So I basically just took skating lessons, then power skate and then games with friends.
