Victorian Selection Again
We pass on our congratulations again to Sarah Breen on gaining selection in the U/16 Women’s Indoor team. Given that Sarah had also gained selection into the Victorian U/15 Women’s outdoor team for the Australian Championships later this year, Sarah’s year hockey calendar will be complete when she takes part in the Indoor Championships on the NSW Central Coast in January 2009.
Running Program
As an alternative to specialist hockey skills, this Summer’s ‘Super Summer Skills’ program will be focusing on running technique. Our leading running coach Sonia Kiernan will be training the squads for the five Sunday mornings through November, and, at this stage, the morning program would run:
U13′s at 9.00 am, U15′s at 10.00 am, and U17′s at 11.00 am. We have 20 places per age group available, and it will be first in best dressed when applications open.
First Aid Training
August the 25th is pencilled in as the night to run the First Aid Course. FHC received a Grant to run this program, there are still spots available for any FHC interested members. Please contact Brendan.
