Mouthguard Clinic:
Date: Saturday November 18th from 8:00am - 2:00pm.
Location: Nick Smith Centre Hall, Arnprior.
Hockey Stars for Hope and Arnprior Minor Hockey welcomed all players to the 1st annual Mouthguard Clinic on Saturday
November 18th from 8:00am - 2:00pm. The clinic was held in the
hall at the Nick Smith Centre.
Local dentists and dental professionals volunteered their time
to further improve the safety of minor hockey in Arnprior. Custom
fit mouthguards offer improved protection against traumatic dental
and head injuries, they are a superior fit allowing for better
comfort, breathing, and speaking resulting in more endurance and
energy throughout the game.
Individuals had their choice of mouthguard colour and received
a protective case for $40! Net proceeds from the event will benefit
Hockey Stars for Hope, an organization dedicated to "Helping Kids
Play" who have the passion but not the financial resources to enjoy
the game of hockey.
Mouthguards not picked up the day of the clinic will be made
available for pick up at Arthur Street Dental Health Group.
