3. List the gear needed to protect an in-line roller player or the goalie. Fill in the table below with the gear and write what each item is used for.

	Arm pads	So you don’t hurt them

In my literacy class we have been learning Commonwealth games. For reading my group read a book about Rolling Hockey.The goalie has different gear then the other player so they have more padding and protection.
