About Us

Hockey is expensive. Especially for parents.

Between league fees and ice time you're already paying thousands of dollars. Add the cost of new equipment in and the game we love quickly becomes cost prohibitive. That's what GetEquipped aims to solve: Reducing the financial burden of hockey equipment and reducing the barrier of entry to the game.

I come from a hockey family. I've been skating since I was 3 and have played recreationally and competitively at different levels since then. So did my brother. We love the game. It was up to my parents to support our journeys through hockey with their time and hard earned money. I look back at it now in awe of the sacrifices they made to get us the equipment we needed as we grew.

Now what happened to that equipment after we outgrew it? For the most part, it sat in the basement collecting dust. All that money spent on new items only to be outgrown 6 months later. Let's call it what it is: expensive. With GetEquipped my goal is to provide a place where hockey parents can sell their kid's used equipment and use that money to pay for the new equipment they need.

The Team

GetEquipped is a passion project of mine. I love the hockey community and it's one I want to give back to. It's early days at GetEquipped and I want this to be a platform that you love. Any and all feedback is encouraged and welcomed! I plan to build and develop the platform transparently in tandem with the community.
