Adaptive Skating Equipment
SEALS
Adaptive skating seals help new skaters build confidence, balance, and independence on the ice. Designed to provide stability and support, seals allow children and adults with disabilities to safely develop skating skills at their own pace. For many participants, a seal is the first step toward a lifelong love of skating and the confidence that comes from achieving something they never thought possible.
SLEDS
Adaptive sleds make it possible for individuals with mobility impairments, physical disabilities, and injured veterans to experience the excitement of skating and hockey. Using specially designed sleds and dual-bladed runners, athletes can propel themselves across the ice, compete, and enjoy all the benefits of being part of a team. These sleds remove barriers and create opportunities for athletes of all abilities to participate in the sport they love.
Seal Sponsors
Kelly's Kidz Foundation
Kelly's Kidz Foundation provided the funding for four adaptive skating seals, helping countless new skaters build confidence, develop skills, and safely experience the joy of being on the ice. Their generosity continues to benefit Hockey Mentors participants every season. Home | Kelly's Kidz Foundation
