About Intramural Sled Hockey

Sled Hockey is an adaptive form of hockey where players sit in specially designed adaptive hockey sleds that glide over the ice on a pair of skate blades. Players propel themselves with a pair of sticks fitted with metal picks. Players that lack the upper body strength or muscle coordination to move themselves may use the assistance of a helper or “pusher” to move them on the ice.

The rules and strategies are very similar to “stand-up” hockey, and much like stand-up hockey, skating is a key element to the game. Participants looking for extra skating practice and instruction may be interested in joining Orange Sleds, the Saturday morning sled hockey class offered by the Syracuse Skating School at Tennity Ice Pavilion. This class is free for students.
