CHELMSFORD HC JUNIOR SECTION PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT POLICY
There is a huge array of protective equipment available and individual players are free to make decisions on their use. However, the club policy is as set out below.
We mandate the use of gum shields, shin pads and face masks for players involved in defending short corners at all levels.

We recommend protective hand gloves for indoor hockey.

CHELMSFORD HC GOALKEEPER KIT POLICY
It is Chelmsford Hockey Club’s preference that all Senior Goal Keepers own their own equipment. On the grounds of hygiene, upkeep and to promote the best physical fit possible. We recognise that such an undertaking comes at a high cost to the player and as such have made a number of provisions outlined in our GK kit policy document to help mitigate this.

For junior keepers equipment will be provided, but the kit stays with the age group squad once the player moves up through the club. If junior keepers provide their own kit, they will not have to pay subs and pay 50% senior match fees.
