Welcome to the official BALL STAR HOCKEY website.
We've come a long way since November 14, 2000 when eight guys rented the school gym for a friendly game of floor hockey. Every Tuesday night for five years during the winter months we got together, threw our sticks into the centre of the floor, tossed half of them to one side and half to the other and decided how we would divide teams. Everyone brought a white t-shirt and a dark one and we changed accordingly. Our intention from day one was to make this a casual and fun display of sportsmanship and get a bit of exercise and make this the most fun ball hockey experience in Halifax.
Now we are a league. It's a non-contact sport and everyone on the floor is considered a friend and treated with respect. The BALL STAR HOCKEY LEAGUE has six teams that play a 10 game regular schedule and a brief playoff round to compete for that ultimate prize: the Achilles Cup, a trophy which we built ourselves and is considered our Holy Grail.
Each of our six teams are outfitted with their own shirts featuring their team logo and colours. We feature all our players on hockey cards which usually come out halfway through the season. To top things off we also decided to start our BALL STAR HOCKEY Hall of Fame, where we honour those who have played with us but moved on. And we're sure there's more to come as we continue to grow.
We hope you enjoy our website. Each week we add new things and update the site so be sure to come back and visit. We're designers and web developers so naturally we provide all graphics to our site. We welcome your comments so please drop us a line in our Contact Us form. Be sure to include your name and email address so we can get back to you.
