you should have:

a stick.

shinguards.

mouthguard. [ ask your coach if clear ones are allowed or not]

cleats.

good luck. :]

edit: cleats are what you guys called spikes. they are the samee thing pretty much. :]

Answer 2

Lol, what the h**l are cleats? I guess it's an American thing.

I've played hockey here in Aus for 9 years.

You need:

A stick - the fibreglass ones are best.

Shinpads.

A mouthguard (aren't you allowed clear ones there? we are here) in the case

Spikes (the shoes with the spikes on the bottom so you don't slip)

Maybe a hockey ball for training.

A hockey bag too.

A drink bottle.

:)

Answer 3

You definitely need a stick, cleats, shinguards, and a mouthguard.

You also may want gloves, turf shoes,running shoes, and a ball for your own practicing, but they're not as necessary as the above.

Good luck and have fun =).

Answer 4

you need:

stick

shinguards

mouthguard (not clear-some people say that is illegal)

cleats

and other than that- just bring water...and thats pretty much it! good luck!
