PLYMOUTH PRIMARY HOCKEY FESTIVAL PROGRAMME Welcome to the 14th edition of the PSHA Primary Hockey Festival! This years festival welcomes several new schools to the event who have never entered before. We think this is a great sign of many schools taking on hockey on a more regular basis which will only help us to grow the amount of opportunities available in future. Alongside the new attendees we have many returning schools who we would like to thank for their continued efforts and commitment to hockey. Basic Schedule 0830-0900 0900-0920 0930-1330 1345-1400 1410-1530 1530-1630 1630-1700

*Please note this is not the award
During the day of competition all participants will also be involved in a set of skills challenges. Each will generate their own score and as a group have a final average score to determine the winning team of the skills challenge.
A new award this year is the GOLDEN STICK! This award will be presented to 1 boy and 1 girl at the end of the festival for all round performance both in there own game and supporting others around them. This should certainly be a great honour as there will only be 2 out of more than 500 participants!
These skills are to be completed during the teams pool allocation which will be an hour long for each. Please make sure these scores are returned to HQ as soon as they have been completed to ensure we can locate the winning team promptly.
The skill challenges are;
As much as we would like to award everyone participants great achievements, its just not possible, however we do have further opportunities for those who demonstrate great skills and understanding of the game.
1) 2) 3) 4) 5)
Throughout the 2 days we have Talent Spotters who will be making note of those who they think should be offered a place on the Excellence Centre programme.

Please ensure you have read the instruction cards prior to the event if you would like to do any practice at school. Each team will be allocated an assistant from our group of young leaders to help recording scores but this will primarily be the responsibility of the team manger. @hockey_dynamics
This is a 4 week course which follows the festival in the final term of school where they are given a chance to have extra sessions of practice on the pitch. From this group we look to choose a group to represent Plymouth Schools in further competition. Plenty to play for!! www.hockeydynamics.co.uk
