Junior Hockey Sticks

My son had asked for a hockey stick for christmas after playing the sport in PE for the first time after moving up to secondary school. He found that he really enjoyed it and joined the school team.

Although I'm more of a rugby fan, I was really pleased that he'd found a sport that he loved, and something I hoped we could share together in the future.

I did some research into junior hockey sticks, as I didn't know too much, and began browsing online stores for a good fit for Leo. After finding out what was important for beginners, and what kind of length was best, I tried to find a good design.

Nedstar really stood out from its competitors with its modern looking site, and striking design of their products. I hoped to score some extra cool dad points by picking the junior pro model, which had an awesome flame design.

I placed my order and hid the package on arrival until christmas eve. Leo absolutely loved his stick and couldn't wait to play with it as soon as possible.
