We are a group of adults who are learning to play hockey, and we're based at the Arkansas Skatium on Bowman Road in Little Rock, Arkansas. We started with just a small group of us, maybe 10 or so, back in April of 2006, and since then we've grown to almost 75 of us. Almost all of us have just learned to skate and play hockey, as adults, although we do have a couple of people who are getting back into the sport after playing as a kid several years ago. We are a very accepting bunch of people, so if you want to come out and try it, come on out! We have some extra equipment available to loan to you whenever you come. We have also managed to form Arkansas' first women's ice hockey team, the Rusty Babes. Although our women play at home and away on coed teams, we travel as a team to play other women's teams. We are hoping that more women join us soon! If you would like more information, email Simone. Some of us are willing to travel to play other Instructional League or D-League teams, and we would welcome other teams here as well, so if you are interested in us coming to play you or vice versa, let me know. We would like to thank everyone who has helped us in the present or past--most notably, Nick Deguire, Andrew "Tuba" Collins, and Paul Petrarca, all of whom have spent lots of time helping us. We'd also like to thank our other supporters, including the Skatium, the AHA, the men's league, the Chaos midgets, and people from so many other areas, who think that what we're doing is really cool, and who have given or offered their help, their time, their used equipment donations, or even just "attaboys". We appreciate them all! |
