Season Information:

We are looking forward to another great year of hockey and welcome anyone who wants to give this great game a go.

We would love to welcome all primary students (Year 1 to Year 6) who are interested to play hockey to sign up.

KingsWay School has a selection of hockey sticks available to use at the first couple of trainings for those who would like to try this sport. Kindly contact the TIC (Elana Theron) for more information.

Years 1-2  Boys and Girls:

The game runs a little differently to the year 3-6 hockey in that the year 1-2’s play on a smaller turf, with smaller goals and only 4 players per team. The game consists of a split between skill coaching (for the first 10-15mins) followed by a game for the remainder of the time slot.

All hockey games are played at the Millwater Parkway Metro Park Hockey Turf at 228 Millwater Parkway, Silverdale, on a Monday after school during terms 2 and 3.

Practices are to be arranged dependant on coaches availability.

Teams are 11 aside and games are played over a full turf. Game time slots are 60 minutes for all grades. Games consist of 2 x 25 minute halves with a 5 minute warm-up and 5 minute half time.

1st Teams:

The expectation is that all 1st XI players attend the tournament week in the first week of September. However tournament is a privilege and not a right. All senior 1 teams and players will be evaluated throughout the season and the school has the right to withdraw a team or players at any time.  All senior 1st teams play top team on the day. There is no equal playing time if playing in the senior top team.

The cost per student is likely be between $400 – $550. Normally we would ask you to register & pay the $100 deposit on the school web site under ‘tournament’ by the beginning of May.

Turfs/Venues:

Games will be played at North Harbour Hockey (Please Click Here for the Harbour Hockey Turf Map) and occasionally at Millwater Hockey turf.
