Welcome
Welcome to Hockey at KingsWay School.
We are looking forward to a great year of hockey. Hockey at KingsWay School is going from strength to strength and a number of our teams excelled in their particular grades last season. We are aiming for more success in 2012. We would like to thank all parents, coaches and managers in advance. Without your commitment, unity and strength, we would not be able to field the number of teams that we do. All hockey games are at Rosedale Park in Albany (Constellation Drive turnoff) and training will be on the school astro turf.

Coaches and Managers:
We believe that it is imperative that every child gets the best possible experience from their sporting opportunities. To this end, we do require dedicated managers and sport coaches to assist with the running of teams. If you are able to volunteer your time, please inform the Teacher in Charge of the code in which you wish to be involved. Every code will have access to specialised coaching this year on an infrequent basis to assist coaches, however, coaching courses can be organised to up-skill volunteers.
Uniform:
Please make sure you have bought or borrowed the following gear for the season –Hockey stick, shin pads, mouth guard, long navy blue socks to go over shin pads, and suitable sports shoes. The new sports socks can be purchased through the KingsWay Sports office for $15, mouthguards can be purchased for $5.

Umpiring
The better you know the rules of a game the better you can play the game. Here are two documents that could help improve your hockey experience. If you are umpiring at any stage please review the Umpire Briefing document, a document that was given out to umpires at the U18 tournament in 2009 from Craig Gribble, NZ Hockey Umpire Development Manager. Also, the rule book is a good tool to refer to if you keep wondering why the ref always blows the whistle when you touch that ball! :-) If you have any hockey rule questions please feel free to contact Miss Norman.
No literature found.
