What is Ultimate Hockey
Ultimate Hockey is a modern discipline of ice hockey built around a 3-on-3 format played on a reduced ice surface.
The smaller playing area creates faster transitions, more puck interactions and constant decision-making. Players are continuously involved in the action, resulting in a dynamic and highly technical style of play.
Games are played in two halves of twelve minutes, creating intense and compact competitions with minimal interruptions.
The format is designed to complement traditional ice hockey while introducing a style of play that fits modern viewing habits and urban environments.
