Registrations for our new U13 and U15 Extension Programme open
June 17, 2021
Canterbury Hockey is launching two brand new extension programmes, one for Under 13s and one for Under 15s, set to begin in July.
Following Hockey New Zealand's recent strategy delivery review, associations have been tasked with providing quality, development-focused opportunities that: reach a broad base of participants, are fun, affordable, and focused on skill development and progression, in place of U13/15 age group representative programmes.
Phase 1 of our 'Extension Programmes' will include a development camp consisting of a mixture of training and match play, with a focus on developing targeted technical skills, tactical concepts and character traits, and progression beyond the experiences participants would receive in club/school hockey.
Details on phase 2, which will be in a festival/tournament event format with other South Island associations, will be announced in due course.

Registrations close on Monday 28 June.
The cost to attend phase 1 will be no more than $100 – the final cost will be determined once we have a better indication of registration numbers.
