Training

Training mainly takes place at the grounds of CIYMS on both Tuesday and Thursday evenings. CIYMS is situated on the Circular Road @ Belmont please see under, ‘Our Club’ for directions.

Tuesday nights

Fitness

Fitness training takes place from 7pm until 8pm. Fitness will take place mainly in Strathearn’s sports hall, except for once a month when we have to make do with a mixture of external training and the badminton hall situated on site. Please bring a change of sports shoes for the sports hall so that sand and gravel do not carry onto the floor.

Skills

Skills take place on our astro pitch from 8pm until 9.30pm. This year we have a coaching team, lead by Nick Johnston, which includes Richard Shiels and Jordan McKee. The coaches will be working on the development of all the teams as well as individual skills.

Thursday nights
Thursday nights are taken this season by Nick Johnston and Richard Shiels. Anyone can attend on a Thursday evening. So come along and join in from 7.45 to 9.15pm on the astro pitch after mini hockey.

COACHES AND UMPIRES
Hockey life would not be the same without our coaches and umpires Nick, Richard, Jordan and Russell. Unfortunately we have lost our fitness instructor Alan Bates this year, as the needs of a second set of pattering feet take precedent.

We are still seeking new umpires – so if you or anyone you know are interested in giving it a go please contact a member of the committee.

Thank you for all your hard work and commitment to the club. Keep up the good work! You are all greatly appreciated.
