Zamboni is not a Dessert

About the Book

Zamboni Is Not A Dessert is the first book of its kind that combines facts and fun about youth ice hockey in a down-to-earth and personal format. This book is a valuable tool not only to parents, but also to children who want to know more about getting started in ice hockey.  The authors provide an in-depth road map that explains registration procedures, tryouts, traveling and tournaments, and deliver it all in a personal, “been there, done that” style.  The book offers detailed information about equipment, costs, rules of the game, terminology, as well as a look at those aspects no one wants to talk about- early morning practices, smelly uniforms, and poor sportsmanship.

Zamboni Is Not A Dessert offers up a full menu of facts and time saving tips, and is a realistic guide to everything you always wanted to know about the game.  Even parents of children already involved in this sport do not always understand the intricacies of the game, such as penalty calls - this book will provide all of that and more. The authors’ sometimes funny, always practical first-hand experiences can be shared by any parent whose child plays, or is considering playing, ice hockey.
