3 Steps to getting started with hockey

Getting into hockey might seem daunting, but we've simplified it into three easy steps.


1. Purchase Skates

Purchase Skates Start by buying a pair of hockey skates. Houston has several stores that carry hockey skates. Check out the Gear Page for information on these stores and their offerings. We always say, purchase skates and helmet first before making the entire equipment investment.

 Jump over to the Gear Page to find out information on the stores.


2. Register For A Skating Class

Ice rinks like Ice at the Galleria, Sugar Land Ice Rink, Memorial City, Aerodrome, and Spirit Ice Station offer learn-to-skate classes. These classes are ideal for beginners and provide a solid foundation in skating skills.

3. Register for a Dallas Stars Learn to Play Camp or an Ice Rinks Hockey Program

Once you've completed your learn-to-skate classes, consider registering for a Dallas Stars Learn to Play Camp or an ice rink hockey program. It's at this time you should purchase the remaining equipment needed for hockey. These programs give participants a chance to experience the game of hockey in a structured and supportive environment.
