Summer Youth Hockey Year 7-10

Youth Hockey is designed for Year 7-10 players who have basic skills and understanding of the game and are wanting to improve and develop. It is 11 aside hockey enabling Year 7 and Year 8 players to learn positioning before they play at Secondary School.

The season in 2025 begins on 6 October with the last game on 15 December. It is played after school on Mondays. The teams are coached and mentored on the field by our great coaches. In 2024 our coaches were P1 players with a real interest in youth coaching and development. Even though this is a competition our emphasis is not about winning but developing each players skill, understanding and confidence.

Youth Hockey is also a ‘pathway’ for our club to build a relationship for those players who are wanting to step up and play club hockey.

All abilities are welcome from beginners to experienced. To accommodate this the competition has three grades; A, B and C.  Our fees are To be confirmed for the season, including a training session. Payment is due before the first game. ECB Hockey Club 12-3107-0065182-01.
