Bring Para Hockey to EA Sports NHL

The Issue

Para Hockey, also known as Sledge Hockey, is not just a game; it’s a passion for many athletes around the world. Despite its growing popularity and recognition as a competitive and inclusive sport, Para Hockey has yet to find its place as a playable mode in EA Sports’ NHL video game series. This petition seeks to change that by calling on EA Sports to integrate Para Hockey into their next NHL title.

Para Hockey is a dynamic and thrilling sport that has been steadily gaining traction on a global scale. Athletes who participate in Para Hockey demonstrate exceptional skill and determination, often overcoming significant physical challenges to compete at the highest level. This sport is not only a testament to human resilience but also a celebration of diversity and inclusion in the world of athletics. It is time for it to receive the recognition it deserves within the gaming world.

Currently, EA Sports NHL games showcase various aspects of ice hockey, including different leagues and styles of play, but Para Hockey remains conspicuously absent. Including Para Hockey would not only broaden the game’s appeal but also provide an opportunity for players to experience and appreciate the unique aspects of this sport.

The inclusion of Para Hockey in EA Sports NHL could potentially expand the fan base of both the sport and the game. It could inspire individuals with disabilities to explore the sport further and increase its visibility. Moreover, by representing a sport that thrives on inclusivity, EA Sports can take a significant step towards advocating for diversity and equality in video games.

We urge EA Sports to recognize the importance of Para Hockey and consider the impact its inclusion could have on players worldwide. Let’s ensure that all hockey enthusiasts, regardless of ability, see themselves represented in one of the most popular video game franchises. Sign this petition to make Para Hockey a part of the EA Sports NHL series.
