Our Goal: To coach players at every skill level of Field Hockey and encourage great teamwork, good sportsmanship and a passion for the game.
Our Philosophy:
1. To teach the fundamentals of Field Hockey.
2. For our athletes to be competitive, but also have fun and build lasting friendships!
3. To create an atmosphere of team unity and community pride across the program.
Financial Assistance: We do not want money to be a barrier to any child that would like to play. If you need assistance paying for the fees, please reach out to let us know how we can help. We do ask that if your player receives assistance though, that they are still fully committed to their team and your family helps out in whatever ways possible.
