Abstract
A hockey puck or game puck designed for non-ice street and court play has friction-reducing runners that engage the playing surface, the runners being replaceable without need for tools. The runners, which can have friction characteristics similar to that of traditional non-ice pucks, can easily be replaced by hand when worn or broken, using the same puck body. Multiple sets of runners with different sizes and friction characteristics preferably are provided, the runners being interchangeable as desired. Replacement runners are inexpensive and allow the puck body to be used over a long period of time.
