Murray Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 i have just recieved a letter and an email from the university of alabama ice hockey team...this is nuts. i have been playing inline for ten years but they insist that it wouldnt take long for me to get my bearings on ice...AHHHH!!! Quote
Super User fourbizz Posted November 14, 2006 Super User Posted November 14, 2006 I don't think that ice skates use bearings....ba duh dum! . Thats sweet dude. Don't disregard it too quickly, it could be your ticket to an education. Congrats! Quote
senko_77 Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 Keep your head up from now on. Open ice hits are nasty. Congrats on the offer man. Quote
Tom Bass Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 That's very cool! 8-) Congratulations. An ol' friend of mine played ice hockey and got into blading for exercise. He said the main difference was in the stopping differences between roller versus ice blades. Give it a shot. It can't hurt. Quote
Hookem Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 On scholarship? 8-) Got to say, I had to look up to see that indeed Bama(Huntsville) had a hockey team. Whodathunk! Quote
Murray Posted November 15, 2006 Author Posted November 15, 2006 no--its not for a scholarship its a club team--UAH has a ncaa team but this is for the university of alabama-- www.bamahockey.org Quote
BucketmouthAngler13 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 You should do fine. The only difference between Ice and Inline hockey is that Ice hurts more. Of course, maybe this rule is just for me. I go really fast and dont know how to brake, so i have to run into someone before i stop. ;D ;D ;D Quote
Panamoka_Bassin Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Oh, man, I am so jealous! I played club hockey in college too, but I actually had to pay for ice time since we weren't really a part of the school. If you're lucky, though, you'll get to play in Madison Square Garden once a year...made it all worth while. Kepp your stick on the ice! Quote
