Back in 2000, their son, Collin, said, "I want to play hockey."
Seven years later, Collin Bradley is 11 and plays 50 hockey games a season. His parents, who live in Middlesex Twp., volunteer many hours helping Collin's team. Registration fees run $1,200 a season, equipment is extra, and the gas to get the family's SUV to all the out-of-state tournaments costs hundreds of dollars.
They never expected to be hockey parents. Bob Bradley had never even worn skates.But the fun and excitement make up for the stress, time and money.
"He's doing well. Otherwise we wouldn't be going through all this," Bob Bradley said of Collin.
