Good evening, hopefully this email finds you well.
Tadcaster Hockey Club's junior hockey training is about to restart.
The Christmas break is over and the season is about to resume. Junior training at Tadcaster Hockey Club will start on Wednesday 8th January 2025 at Tadcaster Grammar School from 6 until 7pm, which covers players from ages 5 up to 16, split by ages for training purposes.
We shall be running junior training this season alongside the senior training bar a week off for half term in February through to the 19th March. The cost for these sessions are being charged at £30 per child with a £5 discount for siblings down to a minimum payment of £20, e.g. first child pays £30, second child pays £25, and any child thereafter pays £20.
If your child is interested in attending, please can you complete the Google Form here whether you have completed a similar form before or not. This form will be used for a register as well as for email distribution regarding future club events and for sending bank and payment details for the sessions once received.
Sticks can be provided, however we recommend hockey shinpads (football shinpads at a push, but hockey shinpads offer better protection for ankles), astroturf boots; note not studded football boots as these are not allowed on the pitch, although trainers may be sufficient, and a gum shield. Please ask for advice on purchases if you feel unsure before buying, better to ask and buy the correct thing than not and get the incorrect thing.
Club kit is not required for training and unlikely to be in the future. With increased participation in Juniors, we may be looking to organise some games against other local clubs this season and we will be looking to provide a kit on the day for such events. We are just starting on our junior journey and currently do not currently have a club kit for juniors, so would be interested to hear if anyone knows of companies/people who would be interested in sponsoring our juniors to assist in the purchase of kit.
