Welcome Rookies

The Abu Dhabi Hockey League was able to attract talents from all over the world, who compete for their spots on one of the teams. The captains will closely watch their skill set and evaluate each player. For many of the rookies, this will be their first entry into professional hockey. While the new players battle for a high draft entry, some players have returned to the league after rather unsuccessful careers elsewhere. 

Alfredo Gonzalez has played for the Tijuana Donkeydicks, the El Paso Fencedoggers, and the Panama City Chalupas. Dennis Leblanc come highly praised as a game changer and played for the Red Sea Pirates, the Beijing Wallbuilders, and the farm team of a Temu sweet shop.  

The Abu Dhabi Hockey welcomes back its veterans!
