Hockey update...

Thanks to all of those who have registered to play hockey this season. We had a good group of students trialling at the end of the term. 

We will follow up with a couple of 6-aside trial games at lunchtime on Tuesday 4th May on our school turf. Students, please make sure that you remember your shin guards, mouthguard and stick on this day.

We hope to have teams named by Friday 7th with practice times and coaches also confirmed for all teams.

Thank you to parents and family members who have offered to coach. I will be in touch this week once we have teams finalised. I have emailed information from Otago Hockey about coaching to those who said they could help with coaching.

Uniforms will be given out at the beginning of Week 2. These are on loan for the season and can be returned when the hockey season concludes.

We have a delay in ordering the blue and red striped socks. Therefore we are happy for students to wear plain navy blue socks with their hockey uniform.

Games start on Friday 14th May. The game times and draw will be on the hockey tab of the sports section of our website.

If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to contact me
