ABOUT
THE SPORT
This is a fast-paced and competitive sport,
but the ESSC emphasizes a ‘fun-first’ attitude to the game! This season, sharpen your skills, broaden your knowledge and have a great time with your team at one of our 4 private facilities each week. It’s a 5 on 5 game including the goalies, with a minimum of 2 females on the floor at all times, or a 4 on 4 game with a minimum of 1 female on the floor at all times. The ESSC offers Recreational, Recreational Plus, Intermediate and Competitive divisions. All games have a Coordinator present but you are expected to call your own fouls and be responsible for your own play. After your game, meet-up with your team mates and other ESSC players while enjoying exclusive specials at one of our many Sponsor Bars around Edmonton. Floor Hockey is one of the ESSC’s most popular sports and leagues sell out quickly.

|
LEVEL |
DESCRIPTION |
SUNDAY |
Recreational |
This division will see teams that may have some skilled players, but typically the team as a whole does not have a lot of experience playing any form of hockey. Passing, shooting and goaltending is unpredictable as some teams learn the sport better than others. There is a big emphasis on fun first. |
SUNDAY |
Recreational Plus |
This division will see teams where the majority of players have played some form of hockey in the past. Passing and shooting are typically accurate, with goaltenders being skilled. The games in this division are usually fast-paced with a lot of action. |
SUNDAY |
Intermediate |
Teams in this division are too good to play in the Rec levels, but need more experience to get to the Int+/Competitive levels. This division will see teams who can form organzied plays and are very skilled in all aspects of the game (offense, defense, goaltending).
