This review is from: She Shoots... She Scores: A Complete Guide to Girl's and Women's Hockey (Paperback)

I would recommend this book if you don't know much or starting out in hockey. It has all the information on equipments all women and girls need for hockey as well on how to skate and so on. There are some interesting information on some players such as Manon Rheaume and Cammi Granato. The book also explains how women hockey began. This is definitely the book all girls should get if they want to be involved in hockey!
