The hockey player and the small goal

The player stands on the rink in a helmet, gloves, skates, and protective pads. The hockey stick is positioned near the puck, while the small net waits directly ahead. Behind the athlete, the goal netting and upright sections of the rink boards establish the practice setting.

Facts about shooting practice

A small goal can help players practice accuracy because it gives them a narrower target than a regulation net. During a shot, a player uses the stick blade to guide and propel the puck while maintaining balance on skate blades. Protective equipment helps cushion impacts from falls, sticks, boards, and moving pucks.

Real-world hockey colors

  • Hockey puck: black
  • Ice surface: clear to milky white, often with pale blue tones
  • Goal frame: usually red
  • Goal netting: usually white
  • Helmet, jersey, and pads: many team colors, including red, blue, black, or white
Questions and answers

Questions and answers

Why do hockey players wear helmets and pads?
Hockey is fast, and players can fall or collide with equipment and rink boards. Helmets and padding reduce the risk and force of many impacts.
How does a player control the puck with a stick?
The curved blade helps guide the puck across the ice. Players use small, controlled movements and shift the puck from one side of the blade to the other.
Why is a hockey goal covered with netting?
The net catches a puck after it crosses the goal line. It also makes a successful shot easier for players and officials to recognize.
