The ice is out at most arenas and minor hockey has given way to road hockey season. Except maybe in places where there's an unreasonable ban or bureaucratic permit applications - like here.
My son spent the weekend playing in a four-on-four road hockey tournament in downtown London and while games rarely break out on our cul-de-sac anymore, it's a sign of the neighbourhood growing older, not a lack of interest.
Road hockey is as Canadian as maple syrup - and a lot cheaper than minor hockey. It should be encouraged on quiet residential streets everywhere.
