Warroad, MN — Contact sports are fun to play but come with certain risks that are mitigated with the right type of equipment. For example, hockey players are encouraged to check one another and can do so because of protective gear.

According to ESPN NHL, Steven Stamkos of the Tampa Bay Lighting broke his leg in a game against the Bruins on November 11, 2013. He is going to be out for an undetermined period of time as he recovers from this incident. It is important to remember that while hockey is fun, the sport requires athletes to take precautions against serious injury.

Shin pads, elbow pads and helmets among other equipment are essential for preventing bodily harm. The quality of the equipment is also of major concern, and substandard apparel has the potential to injure players and hinder the competitiveness of teams. Losing a star hockey player early in the season can cost teams substantially. Using trusted brand name equipment is a prudent decision.

Olympus Athletics offers a wide variety of ice hockey, roller hockey, figure skating and baseball merchandise to choose from. All equipment, apparel and accessories are stocked based on their quality and durability in the rink or on the field. Whether customers need skates, hockey sticks or shin pads, the company has what’s needed to keep athletes performing at their peak
