Slazenger Social Summer League 2016

May 16, 2016 by Slazenger HC

General Guidance:

Remember, this is a social tournament. Play some relaxed hockey – do not kill the opposition! Not all players are the same standard, so adjust your play accordingly. Some teams have keepers. Teams without keepers should have slightly stronger outfield players to reflect this.

There are 80 players this year. A few players will be unavailable each week. If you are looking to get 2 hours of hockey, come down for the other session and fill in where needed.

If there are too many, enjoy the sun and help umpire if you can!

If there are no umpires, play with some honesty.

Rules:

7’s rules apply.

There are no long corners.

Also given the lack of goalkeepers, replace short corners with free hits from the outside of the ‘D’

Kit:

Bring your slaz shirt (or something green) and a black shirt (or something dark). Teams can decide before the fixture who plays in which colour. Don’t forget or you’ll have to wear bibs!

February 13, 2016 by Slazenger HC

This is just a quick note to remind you about this Sunday’s training cancellation.

This Sunday (14th Feb), is half term for Wakefield, Leeds and Kirklees school districts. In addition, we have 4 teams away who would usually attend the Sunday sessions.

Due to this, we have decided not to run the training.

Monday training is unaffected and will run as per usual.

Have a good Sunday and we will see you all back next week!

Many Thanks
