Coastal Hockey Company

www.coastalhockey.co

KOHO was one of the first companies to innovate with hockey sticks back in the 90’s. All of us “old-timers” had one growing up and we LOVED it.

The name “COHO” is a subtle throwback to show some respect and honor for what KOHO did for every single hockey player. All this new technology wouldn’t be where it is today without their work and commitment to hockey. Plus, “COHO” conveniently combines the first 2 letters of Coastal and Hockey. Everyone wins.

Stick taps for KOHO, everyone.

HOCKEY HOW

www.hockeyhow.com

The reason I decided to create hockeyhow.com is to share my knowledge and passion for hockey with the world. If I can answer even one person’s question or teach them something new about this wonderful game, I have done my job.

Another reason I created the site is to help people get into the sport of hockey. It can be an intimidating sport to get into, as there are plenty of rules to understand and pieces of gear to buy. My aim is to help provide a one-stop-shop for all of your hockey-related needs.

I am to be a resource you can trust not only for honesty, but also for high-quality content that is entertaining, informative, and educational.
