Unicycle Hockey

Hockey starts at 8.00pm on our club night.

What do I need?
A unicycle – 20″ or 24″ are the most popular sizes, plastic pedals and non-marking tyre are preferred.

A hockey stick – we use the same sticks as used in roller-hockey and ice-hockey (not the goalie sticks though), these are available from the club if you do not have your own.

Rules

  1. The bottom of the stick must not be lifted above hip height.
  2. One hand must always be placed at the top end of the stick.
  3. The stick must not be released or thrown intentionally.
  4. There are 5 players per team. There are no specific rules relating to goalkeepers i.e. the goalie is treated the same as any other player.
  5. The ball can only be played when a player is riding the unicycle i.e. feet not touching the ground.
  6. Putting your stick under or through someone else’s wheel is a foul.
  7. A goal can only be scored from within your opponents half.
  8. You can play the ball with your hand, but you cannot score a goal with your hand.
  9. Each half starts with the referee throwing the ball onto the centre spot between one player of each team.
  10. After a goal is scored, the non-scoring team restarts by playing the ball over the half-way line.
