Free Equipment Exchange to Help Young Marblehead Youth Hockey Association Players

“Gently used” hockey equipment will be available for free for new or returning Marblehead Youth Hockey Association participants during an equipment exchange at the Marblehead Sport Shop on Saturday.

The Learn-To-Skate/Whack-A-Puck equipment exchange will be at the Marblehead Sport Shop, 26 Hawkes St., on Saturday, Oct. 11 from 4:30-6:30 p.m.

Players and their parents will also be able to buy new equipment plus get their skates sharpened at the event. Plus, the new head of the program, John Payne, will be there to meet players.

Anyone with youth-sized equipment that they would like to donate so it can be redistributed to the next wave of new hockey players can drop it off at the Marblehead Sport Shop any time before Saturday’s event.
