Roller hockey rules
It is vital to become knowledgeable of the roller hockey rules before you play the sport. Many people think of roller hockey as ice hockey without the ice. This is not the case. Roller hockey actually has two sets of very specific rules.
The detailed roller hockey rules vary depending on whether the roller hockey is played using online skates or quad roller skates. There are actually two sets of rules for these two distinct and different types of roller hockey.
Roller hockey rules cover many aspects of the game play and the gear. Some of the points covered in the rules for either type of roller hockey include: rink, number of players on a team, acceptable equipment, penalties, officials and, of course, the rules of play.
For the specific set of rules for the rules of roller hockey you intend to play, whether that is inline roller hockey or quad roller hockey, you will need to contact the club, team or rink at which you will play. Occasionally, clubs or rinks will add their own specific criteria to the rules and it will be necessary to know which rules apply.
