Half-ice games allow each player to experience the whole game in a smaller, faster-paced setting. Players touch the puck more often and get more scoring chances than in traditional games, and the tighter space means more passing and deke moves, too. Half-ice games also force players to keep their heads up, make quick decisions, and improve their reflexes and reaction times. These critical skills will transfer back to the full ice when they play their next game!
