Tickets at the ready

Ice hockey fan getting ticket scanned

We are off to see ice hockey, I cannot wait.

I have never been before but I鈥檓 sure it will be great.

Before we take our seats after entering the stands,

We say hello to the stewards and get our tickets scanned.

There are people there to help you

Security vest

There are lots of people crammed into this space,

I just want to go at my own pace.

There鈥檚 no need to panic and no need to rush,

If you鈥檙e worried or upset, just ask for help, it鈥檚 no fuss.

The roar of the crowd

Ice hockey crowd

I go to the door to take my seat,

Where I鈥檒l clap my hands and stomp my feet.

Just be prepared, it can get a little a little loud,

From the slap of the puck to the roar of the crowd.

The lights have gone out but don't worry, it's part of the show

Ice Hockey players

The lights have gone out, I can鈥檛 really see.

But I鈥檓 safe sitting with my friends and family.

There are videos, and flames, then a light show.

Now the puck is on the ice, the whistle sounds, LET鈥橲 GO!

The drums in the crowd bang loud

crowd with drum

Across the arena, I can hear drums,

That鈥檚 the fan zone and it sure looks like fun.

They wave flags, clap and play songs.

It鈥檚 got a good beat; I think I鈥檒l sing along.

It's cold down on the ice

Ice hockey players

The rink is large, red, blue and white

With the players zooming round, it is really quite the sight.

They tackle, they jostle and pass the puck with ease,

If I played on ice, I am sure I would freeze.

What a goal!

Ice Hockey goal

The puck hits the net, for our teams first score.

The crowd is ecstatic, I hope there鈥檒l be more.

The airhorn blows, then music soon plays.

There鈥檚 dancing and whooping, I could party for days.

Hear the whistle blow

Ice hockey referee

The final whistle blows and whether we鈥檝e lost or won,

The players worked hard and I had lots of fun.

Our team is the best, and to show my support,

I鈥檒l design my own fan poster for my favourite sport.

I鈥檒l use glitter, I鈥檒l use paints, I鈥檒l use sparkles and flare.

I鈥檒l wave it proudly next game. I hope to see you there!
