Kids and adults at the Great Falls IcePlex this morning (11/7) were treated to a clinic that gives people of all abilities a new twist on a classic winter sport.

There was a mix of sled hockey pros, and some players in need a little help.

Adam Page is the youngest member of the USA Sled Hockey Team, and came from New York to help with the clinic.

Eagle Mount and USA Disabled Hockey are hosting this weekend's events.

The free on-ice clinic is open to people of all physical and mental abilities. Plus, sled, sticks, and helmets are provided.

So whether they were hoping to make sled hockey into a hobby or just trying the sport for fun, the skaters were eager for their turn on the ice.
