Have you always wanted to play ice hockey but don’t know how to skate? Or maybe you are an avid hockey fan but are looking for a new sport to try on the ice? Join Rochester Young Professionals at the Bill Gray’s Iceplex on Thursday April 19th for a fun night of Broomball and the chance to spend time with friends and meet new ones.

Broomball is a sport similar to hockey and played on ice, but without the skates. This is a great activity for people of all skill levels. For those who will be joining us please arrive by 6:00 as we will on the ice from 6:30 – 7:30. Following the game we will be heading to the restaurant and tap room for an opportunity to network and spend time with friends.

The event will be limited to 40 participants and will cost $8 for those who wish to participate in the game. We also encourage anyone who is interested in coming to watch and attend the post game event to do so. If you are planning on attending but do not want to participate in the game please RSVP stating you will not be playing so we have an idea on the total number. Those who are not playing do not need to pay the $8 for ice time.

For those who will be playing you are required to bring a helmet with a strap. This can include but is not limited to a bicycle, football, lacrosse, hockey, motorcycle/ATV, ski/snowboard, provided there is a strap. Also recommended are sneakers, long pants, and long sleeves.

Again the game will be limited to 40 players. If you are interested in playing RSVP to sports@r-y-p.org before Thursday April 12th.
