What session should I register for?

There are sessions to cover all abilities from beginners to intermediate and more advanced players.  The sessions are run by experienced and qualified coaches and emphasis is placed on enjoyment and participation.


Age Group

Up to P4: Friday or Thursday
P5-P6: Friday or Thursday or Tuesday (boys aged 10 and above only)
P7-S1: Friday or Wednesday (boys) or Monday (S1 girls only) or Tuesday (boys)
S2-S6: Monday (girls) or Tuesday (boys) or Wednesday (boys) or Friday or Senior training (Tuesday/Thursday)

For beginners and younger players, the Friday or Wednesday session or the indoor session on Thursday evenings at Shawlands Academy are appropriate.  For players who have been playing for a few years the Friday and Wednesday are still appropriate.  The coach will divide the session in groups and provide an appropriate programme to all.  Players who are a little older and starting to play competitive hockey should consider Monday and Tuesday sessions.  The Monday session is for girls who are preparing to play competitive hockey and will most likely be in S1+ or older.  There is a similar session for the boys on a Tuesday.  These sessions are stepping stones to full senior training.

Code of Conduct

It is vital for everyone’s enjoyment and safety that the children behave whilst on the pitch.  This includes following instructions from our coaches and paying attention to what is going on.  We will not tolerate instances of bullying, verbal abuse, bad language and general disobedience.  If a child has to be spoken to on more than two occasions, he/she may be asked to leave.  We ask for your support in ensuring that all the children and those who give their time to coach them enjoy their sessions at the Club.   Please be aware that it is the parent’s responsibility to ensure the safe collection of their children from the premises at the end of the sessions.
