Special Hockey International creates a place for the developmentally challenged to find self-esteem and confidence through hockey.
No age groups. No tryouts. The kids who join don’t even have to know how to skate.
The best part? Watch the video again. #2 has his own challenges but here—here he gets to be somebody’s hero. He’s someone’s example. Someone’s role model.
Special Hockey International achieves a real hat trick. Players find confidence. Players get to be heroes. Players achieve goals they never knew they could when they watch the puck slide into the net.
The rest of us are just lucky enough to watch.
