Post Covid-19 U13 & U15 Representative Development Program

Overview.

Any player interested in being up skilled during term 3 can register for this program.

Over 10 weeks in term 3 OHA will run a Representative Development Program. This will replace the Hatch and Collier Tournaments and Development Festivals for 2020, which have been cancelled by Hockey New Zealand, due to Covid19.

Our aim is to give all players an opportunity to play some hockey and work on their hockey skills and playing concepts. This will be done through small group sessions. We want to improve and develop players in what remains of the 2020 hockey season.

  • Block 1 - First 3 Sundays - training sessions
  • Week 4 - we will put players into teams and have inter-squad competition games.
    • Make equal teams by mixing all the players up into teams
    • Boys groups
    • Girls groups
    • OHA will approach other associations to find inter association matches. These games could be added to the program as they are arranged.
  • Block 2 - Back to 3 Sundays of training sessions
  • Week 8 - inter-squad competition games 
    • Same teams and the first round - continued competition
    • Boys Groups
    • Girls groups
    • OHA will approach other associations to find inter association matches. These games could be added to the program as they are arranged.

 

  • If we do manage to arrange games against other associations, we will look to select teams from these training sessions - with the help from trainers and coaches.
  • To be considered for any inter association matches players must be registered and attend the Rep development Program
