Nebby Nick Hits the Ice with Pittsburgh LGBTQ Hockey!

Nebby Nick laced up his skates and suited up in full gear to take a spin with Pittsburgh LGBTQ Hockey, a queer-led recreational team that’s redefining what it means to be on the ice. What might feel like a traditionally macho, intimidating space transforms in the hands of this community, where experience doesn’t matter, and everyone is treated like part of the team.

Pittsburgh LGBTQ Hockey is open to players of all identities, backgrounds, and skill levels, no gatekeeping, just a lot of fun. Monthly clinics, loaner gear, and a supportive squad that values inclusion.
