Mouthguard Gloves Shinguard Boots Ball Stick

Most hockey matches these days are played on artificial surfaces so you'll need a special pair of boots called turf boots.

They look like trainers but have rubber pimples on the soles that will give you added grip.

You'll be pounding around on the hard surface for lengthy periods of time, so look for a shoe that will cushion your foot.

You should also make sure the boots fit snuggly around your foot.
