Hampshire Hockey is excited to announce the launch of "Hampshire Game Changers," a pilot program designed to identify and nurture young talent across the county.

The following two coaching experiences involve four different coaches in two different countries, but in order for the narrative to flow, and for my own entertainment, I will pretend that it was the same pair of coaches in the same session.

My first dim inkling that coaching might be something I could do came during an U13B team game for King Edward VI school versus Pangbourne College on grass at the school site.

We’re thrilled to announce Jim East as the newest addition to the Hampshire Hockey Player Pathway Group Committee, taking on the role of Coach Development Officer.

Today, Sunday, July 14, marked the exciting conclusion of the 2024 Hampshire Development Centres (DC) with the U16/17 match day.

Tonight marks an exciting milestone for Hampshire Hockey Player Pathway as we launch our Young Umpire Development Course.
