How much does full goalie equipment cost(besides goalie skates)?
Question
I'm 13 years old and I'm good at goalie in street hockey with my friends so I should be good in ice hockey. Does full goalie equipment cost more than playing regular hockey equipment?

Answer
For pads and gloves, I'd conservatively budget $1000. For a mask...$150-$250 Chest/arms...$150-$250 Sticks...$100 ea (have at least 2) Goalie cup (YOU NEED THIS): $100 For everything (skates, bag, accessories, etc.) including the above, I would budget $2000. No, I'm not making this up, and no, this is not for top-of-the-line gear. To answer your last question- offhand, goalie equipment is (roughly) at least double the cost of player equipment).
