NOHC Young Hockey Leaders wanted!

In conjunction with Ulster Hockey, we're planning to hold a 'Young Hockey Leaders' course for our members over the summer months

What is the Young Hockey Leaders Award?

The Young Hockey Leaders Award is a 5-hour long course that introduces young people, aged between 15 and 17, to volunteering in their hockey club.

The aim of the programme is to enjoy all aspects of the sport of hockey rather than concentrating on playing only.

The programme comprises of 2 modules:

Umpiring (2.5 hours)
Coaching and Team Management (2.5 hours)

The Young Hockey Leaders Award helps to pass on skills, top tips and most importantly confidence, so that Young Leaders can get back out to their clubs to put their new found knowledge to use!

To complete the award, each leader must attend the 2 modules and then go back to their club to complete 5 hours of contact time.

What does it cost?

Normally £20 per participant, the course is free to club members! We just need a minimum of 12 to hold the course. Why not get together with your friends and book a space!

E-mail members@newryolympichockeyclub.com by the 31st May 2024 if you're interested in taking part.
