Street Hockey Balls & Pucks
Do You Play Street Hockey With a Ball?
To engage in street hockey, you have the option of using a puck or a street hockey ball. Although the goal can be makeshift, it’s quite challenging to play without something to strike with your hockey sticks.
There is an extensive range of hockey balls that are ideal for street hockey, yet significant variations exist in the weight and firmness of the different balls. When opting for a street hockey ball, it is essential to think about the weather conditions in which you will be playing.
Temperature greatly affects the ball's bounce and also determines its tendency to adhere to the surface and your hockey stick. In extremely cold conditions, a soft ball is necessary, whereas, in predominantly hot summer weather, a very hard ball is preferable. Typically, street hockey balls are the top choice if your playing surface is rough concrete or asphalt.
Conversely, street hockey pucks are generally lighter than their ice hockey equivalents. Constructed from lightweight plastic, they are designed to glide smoothly over both concrete and indoor surfaces.
