Shefford & Sandy Hockey Club

Trials to be part of the Development Centre are in September and we have been asked to recommend young people who we think have the skills and aptitude to become County Hockey Players. If you would like to be considered for any of the groups below please email me asap and I will talk to your coaches and then forward you the County Trials application form. Closing date is 31st July 2012.


The Development centres will run on Sundays for 1 1/2 hours every two weeks from October to Christmas and then those selected will continue onto the County Squad. This squad will also have training every two weeks from Christmas to Easter. The cost is usually about £40 per term.


The age groups for girls are as follows:-


U13 Born 2000/01
U14 Born 1999
U15 Born 1998
U17 Born 1996
Players and GK's in each age group


The age groups for boys are as follows this year :-

U13 boys Born 2000/01
U15 boys Born 1998/1999

The U17 age group has very sadly not been catered for by County this year due to a number of reasons. Whilst this is very disappointing can I please make you aware that Simon Holloway (our previous coach and Herts County coach) will welcome U17 boys and also Northamptonshire have not done their trials yet . Watch this space for more details.
