Hey guys i was a avid hockey player from age of 5 till i moved here to NYC. Does anyone watch it on tv(well used to watch it) or play for that matter. I am thinking about joining a summer roller hockey league and was wondering if anyone knows of some places i can go. Maybe we could join a team together or something.. I played at a national level, but i havent had skates on in over a year and I am horribly over weight, soo im sure i wont be jumping back in the hot seat any time soon, but a mellow slower less competitive game may be my style for now..
Hit me up...

I used to play roller hockey on the street, it was a lot of fun....
I have issues stopping in ice skates & roller blades though.

hockey is the shit. i used to play roller hockey all through junior high and was in a league. i was a pretty decent goalie and defenseman, but i havent roller bladed in over 5-6 years, so i definitely suck now haha.
Hmm maybe to start we should all just go skating lol.....

there are leagues in NYC at Chelsea Pier. You can call over there and get info.
I know there are also leagues on Staten Island. Depending on where in Brooklyn you are, either NYC or SI may be easier for you.

Played from middle school up until high school. Travel teams, high school team, summer camps up at West Point and Lake Placid, tournaments all over the east coast and was favored to be the starting goaltender for The Empire State Games.
Ahhh...used to live for that damn sport but due to an idiotic drunk stunt I pulled when I was headed into my senior year of HS I can no longer play. Miss it...BIG TIME!
Cosmokid is right on...Staten Island has the best roller hockey leagues around. Lots of my friends play and believe it or not Staten Island used to be the hotbed for hockey in the city.
If your looking for an ice league...NJ is the way to go. Have friends that play out there and the competition is ridiculous. Retired professionals & former junior players play in the leagues out there.
