Broomball Thursdays at Wells Ice Rink

In a game of broomball there are two teams, each consisting of six players - a goaltender and five others. The object of the game is to score more goals than your opponent by hitting the ball into your opponent's net using a broom.

Players wear special rubber-soled shoes instead of skates, and the ice is prepared in such a way that it is smooth and dry to improve traction. All players are required to wear a helmet or will be required to sign a waiver. Must be at least 18 years of age to play.
