Product description

Volt Hockey is the ultimate team sport for physically handicapped children and young adolescents. It is played by children with many different types of handicap from around the age of six. What they all have in common is the love for speed and the appreciation of the community and friendships across the clubs.

Many players deal with great physical limitations in their everyday lives. But on the volt hockey court they only face challenges in the form of opponents and teammates – and sometimes the judge.

The game is played in three-man teams in lively, little carts that are controlled by a joystick. The joystick can be placed in different positions depending on the player. The chair has a stick attached on the front, so it is the movement of the chair that guides the ball around on the 14×20 meter field.

Volt hockey is played in three divisions. In the first division there are high demands for technique, understanding of the game and the handling of the chair, whereas the second and the third division are played at an entirely different pace where there is room for everyone.
