Winter is ending, if you could in fact call this a winter. if you feel like you missed out on it or even if you didn’t come join Capitol Broomball for a free pick-up game on March 21. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Broomball is similar to ice hockey, but in special shoes, balls and \u201cbrooms\u201d instead of skates, pucks and sticks. Capitol Broomball, also known as District Broomball, is a co-ed league that plays at Tucker Road Ice Rink in Prince George\u2019s County, Md. It\u2019s just a few minutes from Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia, the Capital Beltway and Wilson Bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Capitol Broomball is a competitive, yet collegial league. There is plenty of coaching, lots of encouragement. Teams are reshuffled for every season, so you get to meet lots of people. Currently, our age range is from early 20s to late 50s, so don\u2019t feel like your time may have passed. The sprinting gets you in better shape by the third game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The league provides sticks, shoes, and helmets are available for new players to borrow. Most regulars own their own equipment, especially helmets. You can always wear a bike helmet or a ski helmet too. A few regulars wear lacrosse helmets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
