Best Answer

When you play hockey mostly required equipment is a cage helmet (street or roller hockey) or just a visor helmet for Ice Hockey (you can also have a cage helmet for ice)

Every type of hockey you should have shin guards

Have to have hockey gloves

Have to have hockey stick obviously

Some people recommend having a mouth guard.

Some places make you have elbow pads while some don't.

Well they need a variety of equipment. First they need goalie skates and goalie pants. Also they need special type of pads to cover their legs, called goalie leg pads. A few other things are a goaltender chest protector, goaltender catch glove, blocker, goalie helmet, a goalie stick, and usually a cup.

The keeper wears protective armour to protect themselves from the impact of the ball. It usually includes kickers, legguards, padded shorts, chest armour, gloves, throat protector and a helmet. A girdle can be worn, as can arm/elbow protectors, but some keepers prefer not to wear the arm protection to aid movement.

Standard equipment pretty much consists of:

  • Legs Pads
  • Blocker (the thick pad that goes over the arm of the hand that is holding the goalies hockey stick)
  • Trapper (the 'glove' or 'bread basket' that a goalie wears, similar to a Baseball glove)
  • Mask (Goalies where a mask that is designed to protect them from the puck from all different angles) Some masks have a throat protector, a section of plastic that hangs off of the mask that is intended to keep pucks from hitting the throat area.
  • Chest Protector (pads worn under the jersey that covers a goalies chest, stomach, and arms)
  • Goalie Skates (special skates that have a longer blade for stability and a protective outer shell)
  • Goalie Jock (similar to typical jock with extra padding around abdominal area)

The best way to dress a hockey goalie is to start with putting on the breezers (pants). Next, their skates should go on. Then (the leg pad laces and) the leg pads. Next, chest protector and sweater. Then the helmet, and finally, the gloves. Dressing a goalie this way flows--one piece of equipment leads to the next. Because of this, it is the easiest and fastest known way to dress a goalie.

Hope this helped

It depends on what kind of hockey. If you are playing ice hockey you should wear: Ice skates (for ice hockey, not figure skates)
shin pads & knee pads (most wear socks over shin and knee pads)
padded shorts
chest and shoulder pads (they look like the pads that foot ball players wear. Make sure to get hockey pads)
elbow pads
neck guard (optional, but if you want to stay safe and warm you should wear one).
helmet (you should wear a cage helmet)
Jersey (to complete the uniform)
