Pond Hockey in MI

[tamtamg 12]

Hey guys. I've been participating in a weekly game out in Walled lake. We got a fairly large sheet of ice that is well maintained (regularly flooded, no bumps). We've decided to expand to more people, and with regulation nets and goalies. It's mostly guys in their 30-40's, beginner skill level. I think I'm the youngest guy at 24. We're out there to have fun, so if you want to come out toe dragging and trying to be the next OV, please don't come. If any of you are interested in joining, post your interest here. Also if you are a goalie or have a net we could use, let me know (we have 1 goalie and 1 net so far). Also bringing some beers would also be appreciated. The games are Saturdays at 1pm. I'll PM you the address if you are interested.

I miss Walled Lake. Used to live 3 min from it.

Sounds like a good time. It'd be a bit of a drive for me, but I haven't played pong hockey in years... Anyone come from EL?

My roommate is from Walled Lake, If I have a Saturday off in the near future we will probably come down and skate, where is it at?

the actual "rink" is really nice. All the neighbors help maintain it. I believe they flood every night. the ice surrounding it is another story.

for the guys who expressed interest, I'll pm you the details later in the week (probably Friday night).

We could still use a goalie. Also, they we started a new rule, price of admission is a pair of warrior ryan malone team usa or victor kozlov team russia gloves. i know it's kind of a strange/specific rule, but I don't make them, just enforce them. :P

I live an hour away and still go, if you live within an hr away. no excuses.

we had a major crack in the ice and our rink is under 2 in of water. unless it gets much colder soon, it looks like we may be done fore the season.

Sounds perfect. I'm going to have to make the trip next season.

Looks like we're meeting today (2/20) at 1pm at the rink in Central Park(located downtown right next to the train tracks and huron river) in Milford. It's a public outdoor rink and it's free.
