Advantages: very cheap and very protective, great for beginners/intermediates Disadvantages: very slight point of protectiveness and comfort but that would be petty
i have been playing hockey for a long time now and have reached very high levels in doing so, playing as one of 8 goalkeepers in this country to play hipac at my age. i did this wearing my slazenger helmet that i would trust if a ball came towards my face. these helmets are very good for beginner/intermediate players. if you are just starting hockey this is one of the cheapest helmets around, but don't let that fool you as this would keep you easily protect from a shot at the face, it was so good that when my first slazenger helmet got too small, i brought another one, i even got a fellow hampshire goalkeeper to buy one as his grays one was to uncomfortable. only downsides are that there not as strongly protective as some more expensive helmets or as comfortable, but personally this was not much difference and you can easily get used to ...

The essential pieces of kit will be a stick, which can be purchased for anything between £20-£25 and £120 upwards. The important thing to consider when choosing a hockey stick is how it feels in your hands. You will be carrying it around for 70 minutes during a game, and you will be waving it around a fair amount, so it is important that you have a stick which you feel happy with.
