Ice Hockey is played in 55 countries around the globe from Australia to Yugoslavia. Ice Hockey is an exciting fast paced sport requiring stamina, strength and co-ordination. As with any sport there is always a risk of injury, with Ice Hockey the chances of an accident are a lot higher due to the slippery surface and the aggressive nature of the game.

Even spectators aren’t safe, over the years there have been numerous serious injuries sustained when fans have been hit by the ice hockey puck.
The puck is made of elastomeric rubber polymer and feels as hard as stone, the puck can travel at very high speeds resulting in nasty injuries if someone is hit by it.
Ice Hockey is becoming more and more popular in the UK, as a result bigger arenas are being used to host the games, these arenas only provide limited protection to spectators by way of a ground level protective sceen. Fans sat higher than the ground level are exposed to the risk of being hit by an ice hockey puck.
At Pinto Potts we have specialist Solicitors experienced in dealing with ice hockey accident and injury compensation claims.
