WHY DONUT HOCKEY?

Donut Hockey connects elements of the successful Canadian team sport Ringette with floorball and ice hockey. This combination creates an extremely attractive, fast new team sport. Donut Hockey is very easy to learn and advanced players keep finding new challenges over and over again. This makes Donut hockey the ideal team sport – also in heterogeneous groups.

HOW TO START?

To immediately get cracking, there are practical material sets including quickstart rules. You will find detailed rules, technique & tactics as well as a great variety of training ideas in the attractive teaching manual “Donut Hockey”. To get a professional introduction with many ideas for own lessons, it would be best to attend a course.

TRYING IS THE KEY!

Someone may think: Awww, this is Ring Hockey – I know this very well from primary school. Yes and no – Donut Hockey has originated on the basis of ring hockey, just as basketball had his origin with peach baskets. We have developed further the witty play idea from Canada and have produced specific material in addition, so that an attractive team sport has originated. Attend a course and convince yourself!
