## Resource

The PHATS/SPHEM Hockey Summit is gearing up in Florida as a vital gathering for hockey’s unsung heroes—the equipment managers, trainers, and medical staff whose work keeps players safe and performing at their best. With the NHL now requiring each team to send at least one equipment manager and two medical staff members, the event has become a league-endorsed cornerstone of player care. Beyond networking, it’s a critical certification renewal hub and innovation showcase, featuring over 700 professionals and record vendor participation. This year’s summit isn’t just about gear—it’s about elevating support roles to a professional standard, proving their indispensable impact on the game.
