Real Hockey Moms

I got to help my friend Robert who shoots human interest stories for a Long Island TV program. We drove out to Port Washington to shoot the Long Island Hurricanes, a women’s ice hockey team. Ages on the team range from 20′s to 60′s. Most of the women are Moms- one’s a grandmother- and they all totally kick ice. Here are some quick shots and video sketches I managed to grab with my Cannon Elph.

If I lived on Long Island and could skate, I would love a few lessons with Coach Lilah. Check it out:

This is wonderful. The little kid kissing Grammy thru the face protector IS better than a thousand words. And those girls SKATE! Never forget that all grammas are girls: girls who kick ass – or ice, whichever.

  I think so too. She was terrific. Tough and sweet, the best combination.
