Saturday morning hockey begins in Term Two

Practice Times

Mt Eden junior hockey teams practice times will be confirmed shortly

Grades

Games on Saturday mornings can be played on any astro surface from way out west (at Henderson), or out to Howick, but generally our teams will be allocated games near central Auckland but not always!

We practice and play WET OR FINE on Astroturf. Junior hockey, as a rule, is NEVER cancelled.

Format

Coaching and umpiring

We cannot offer more teams or continue to excel until we have more volunteers. The Club has resource material, training gear and is prepared to pay coaching course fees for parents who are prepared to give-it-go. It is expected that parents will help.

Uniforms

We loan you a uniform for the season, although you will need to buy socks. Socks will be available from Sports First 954 Dominion Road Mt Roskill www.sports-first.co.nz

Playing Gear

Shin pads and Mouthguards are essential items (as well as a stick!). We play always on artificial turf - there are turf shoes,but running shoes are fine.

We recommend "Sports First" 954 Dominion Road Mt Roskill, PH 09 6200357 www.sports-first.co.nz official sponsors of our club. You will receive discounts & the club will benefit from purchases.
