NextBobbyOrr 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 Hey guys. So I do realize that this might just be one of the oddest questions ever. But I'm curious are there any hockey shops in the Philippines? I've been thinking about that Flame company in Russia that did knockoffs of the Franchise glove and several other pieces like that. I'm wondering if there's A) Anything of that sort in the Philippines or B) Just any general hockey stores to go look around in. I haven't gone home for about 4 years, so I have no clue what's there. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thepandamancan 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2011 Another Filipino that plays hockey...awesome.I seriously doubt that there are. I know they do have ice rinks (especially the one in the huge mall), but I don't know if hockey is even known. My family has seen pictures of me playing and they had no clue what sport I was playing. Outside of basketball and boxing, the Philippines doesn't seem to have that great of a sense when it comes to sports.I just read up on the Manila Predators and other local teams so I'm interested to see what you find out.

NextBobbyOrr 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2011 Haha yup, Filipino born and raised in Canada, so I fell in love with hockey. And that's a bummer..I do know that there are actually several teams in the Philippines(Predators, Vixens, Saints, probably more). And being the gear junkie that I am, I just had to try and find a means to an end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
