Oregon Sled Hockey

Portland Winterhawks Sled Hockey Team Info This game requires players to sit in a sled that has blades on the frame and allows the puck to pass underneath.

Sled Hockey was designed to allow participants who have a physical disability to play the game of ice hockey, including youth, and veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Players also have two shortened hockey sticks that they use to not only push themselves along the ice, but it also allows them the ability to pass and shoot the puck as well.
