Youth Hockey
Under 16 and want to play hockey?
Sunday mornings, 9.00am – 10.30am, Mile End Astro
What?
We hold weekly training every Sunday morning at Mile End Astro. These are for children and teenagers of all abilities, whether they have never picked up a hockey stick or they have played for school / another club.
Where?
It will take place at Mile End Park Stadium on the astro turf pitch:
Rhodeswell Road
Poplar
London
E14 7TW
When?
Training sessions will run every Sunday until December. They are 9am-10:30am, but please turn up to the first time 15 minutes early to register. A parent or guardian must accompany the child/children on their first session to register them into the sessions.
How...much?
Each session is just £1.50.
Why?
We think it's vital that children and young people get involved in an Olympic Sport that will be hotly contested right here in 2012. East London Hockey Club has set up a brand new Youth Section and is working towards our Clubs First accreditation.
Hockey is a great game, and if you've never played it, you should certainly give it a shot. Youth training is free and for both girls and boys up to the age of 18. It's a great way to have fun, get fit, make friends, and learn to work as a team. We'll be looking to start taking part in youth competitions as soon as we can. For those that already play hockey, you might even be able to turn out for one of our Adult sides on Saturdays.
We are very keen to hear of any interest from any young players, even if you've never picked up a stick before! If you fancy giving hockey a shot, get in touch with Dan Collis (our Youth Development Officer) at youth@elhockey.co.uk and we'll let you know any details.
We are also keen to hear any ideas/suggestions/views from those in and around Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Newham - please do get in touch!
