This sport is played like ice hockey except on a wooden floor with a orange rubber ball rather then a puck. All the good players use an HM30 and warrior sticks.

Overall it’s a magical campus and includes the best schools to send your child. Just hope he/she doesn’t go off the derech Urban Dictionary
