This week for my blog I will be talking about why hockey is my favorite sport. If you don’t already know what hockey is it is a sport played on a sheet of ice, using skates and other pieces of equipment to protect you from pucks.
I love hockey because I find it very fun, it is a good workout and a physical sport. It is a good way to get together with friends and have a fun time. My hockey team is the Arborg Falcons and I am currently in my second level of peewee. Another reason why I really like hockey is the NHL (National Hockey League), this is the highest possible level of hockey so it is the most fun to watch. I like all kinds of hockey such as ice hockey, floor hockey and road hockey. My favorite position in hockey is defense which is what I play.
My favorite hockey player plays in the NHL, and is Alex Ovechkin. He is another reason why I love and wanted to play hockey when I was a little kid. Alex Ovechkin also plays for the Washington Capitals which is my favorite hockey team.
