News about an opportunity for women to try out ice hockey in the San Francisco bay area. The women's hockey league, the Northern California Women's Hockey League (NCWHL), hosts an event called "Give Hockey a Try Day" (GHATD) twice each year to introduce more women to our sport. GHATD is usually a 1.5 to 2 hour event where the league provides donated gear to all participants and coaches to teach them how to skate, pass, and shoot. During the second half of the event, players are divided into 2 groups and have a full-ice pickup game so everyone can try out all their new skills. There are also have a few spots for women who'd like to try out being a goalie (the league provides donated gear for this also), and there is a dedicated goalie coach who leads them through drills before the pickup game.
