Gear Rules

Hello Everyone!
I'm new to JMS hockey and need a little clarification: are shoulder pads absolutely required, or is it a personal preference thing? I'm slowly acquiring a full set of gear again (some a**hole stole my gear bag), and since I never wore shoulder pads for pickup hockey before, I want to be sure I don't need to grab new, used but new to me, shoulders as well.
Thank God I stumbled upon this site because I haven't been able to find ANY ice times anywhere outside of Victory Memorial on Saturday afternoons, which they discontinued. I look forward to playing with the majority of you and am happy to get back on the ice!

Shoulder pads are optional and up to personal preference.

◦Wear full gear (shins, breezers, elbows, shoulders [optional but strongly recommended], gloves and helmet). You can leave off the shoulders, but everything else is required. You must have a helmet, but you are allowed to play with no mask or a half shield, though this is NOT advisable.
◦Bring a white and a dark jersey. Do not bring yellow, grey or orange as they are neither "dark" nor white.
