For all of you hockey players out there, you've probably had to defend the authenticity of your sport to others who never actually consider it to be a one that has any value or pleasure about it. Obviously, these people couldn't be any more wrong as hockey can leave you breathless, satisfied and begging for more, which is more than you can say about your ex lover. If you are a hockey player, you remember having to stay fit over the Summer holidays in order to be team ready for school starting in September and you were determined to earn the title of Captain so you had to lay off the crisps and full fat juice. You used to count down the days until the first game of the season and if it was with your rival team, then it was on. There are a number of qualities that make you a more tolerable human being for playing sport and being a valued member of a team because these are traits that you carry with you in your life outside of the pitch. Being a hockey player is no different and you learn a lot about yourself when you're a player who has access to a stick and a lot of shins... So if you're single and looking for The One, why not make sure that person is a hockey player?
