Our junior hockey programs

Our programs are designed for all kids, whether they’re absolute beginners who’ve never held a hockey stick or players who’ve already had some experience and want to keep developing. We cater for children from early childhood through to teenagers, with age-appropriate groups and a focus on personalised, team-based coaching.

Beginner programs

Never held a stick? No worries! Our beginner programs introduce the basics of hockey in a fun, pressure-free environment, ensuring a positive first experience.

Skill development

For players wanting to grow their game, we offer age-appropriate coaching tailored to individual and team progression, helping refine existing skills.

Specialised training

Explore specific roles with goalkeeper coaching, position-focused skills, and coaching education pathways for aspiring young players and coaches.

More than just a game

Beyond hockey skills, we foster confidence, friendships, and a sense of belonging. Our programs build important life skills and create a positive community for every child in the Northern Rivers region.

Building Confidence & Friendships

 

Our programs help children learn to work as part of a team, communicate, support one another, and feel comfortable trying new things in a positive environment. Kids develop important life skills like resilience, respect, leadership, and self-belief, while building real friendships and connecting with peers from diverse backgrounds.
