U13 & U15 Development Programmes
18/6/2021U13 & U15 Development Programmes 2021
Otago Hockey is excited to announce development programmes for the U13 and U15 age groups. These programmes are the first fully-fledged instalments since the restructure of the Representative calendar post-2019. These opportunities are open to anyone and everyone within the respective age groups who are keen to develop their skills through the remainder of the hockey season.
The programmes kick off with a FREE 7-a-side festival on the 4th of July. You can register as a team or an individual – and it’s Mixed! So get a group of mates together and enter a team for what’s going to be an awesome day on the turf! There will be a BBQ, the music will be pumping, and the games will be short and sharp!
Please register for our 7-a-side festival here. Entries close Wednesday 30th June.
U13 Overview:
- 7-a-side festival, 4th July
