Whether you are a hockey fan or not at first sight, if your kids start playing this sport, you automatically become a huge fan. That is how you slowly turn into a “Hockey Mom” as we all know them.

As a hockey mom, here are 10 famous facts that you may understand:

1. “I can’t go”

You have already refused (tons) of activities saying “I can’t, my kids have a game”.

2. Say goodbye to your personal expenses

You’ve already bought a hockey stick for your child instead of those wonderful shoes you’ve been hoping for.

3. Work – Practice – Dinner – Sleep

4. You got everything in your purse

You always have a coat, a warm waistcoat, a blanket, gloves, a scarf and a toque in your car. Even during the summer.

Let’s be honest, you really have to be crazy! But there is an eleventh point which is essential:

11. But boy do we love them!
