Street Hockey Balls & Pucks
Is Street Hockey Played With a Ball?
To engage in street hockey, both pucks and street hockey balls are options. While the goal can be makeshift, it’s challenging to play without something to strike using the hockey sticks.
There is an extensive range of hockey balls appropriate for street hockey, though significant variations exist in the weight and hardness of the different balls. When opting for a street hockey ball, take into account the weather conditions in which you will be playing.
Temperature greatly affects the ball's bounciness and influences how much it adheres to the surface and your hockey stick. In very cold conditions, a soft ball is necessary, whereas for hot summer play, a very hard ball is preferred. Generally, street hockey balls are ideal for rough concrete or asphalt surfaces.
Conversely, street hockey pucks are typically lighter versions compared to ice hockey pucks. They are crafted from lightweight plastic, facilitating their glide across smooth concrete and indoor surfaces.
