Shake Off The Rust
O N L I N E

// OCTOBER 2024 USAHOCKEYMAGAZINE.COM
THE OLDER YOU GET, the harder it is to stay in shape.
But even for kids, there is an element of needing
to knock the rust off when returning to a sport after
significant time away.
While that isn't a reason to shy away from playing
multiple sports — far from it, in fact, given the many
benefits of engaging in a variety of activities — the reality
is that a 12U player returning to hockey after the summer and fall will need an
acclimation period.
