BELPER LADIES HOCKEY CLUB – JUNIOR SECTION Pre‐Season Newsletter 2012/13 We hope you are all well and despite the weather enjoying the summer so far. The undoubted highlight for next season is the new Astroturf carpet on the pitch which is being laid at the moment and will be in operation for next season. This is a significant investment by the Sports Club and its Hockey section in securing our future and ensuring that players can play and train on what will be the best playing surface in the County. Next Season Looking ahead to next season, we are delighted that Wayne Madsen will continue to be our Head Coach. As some of you will know Wayne is the Captain of Derbyshire Cricket Club and they are having a good season. Once the cricket season has finished Wayne will lead the evening training sessions supported by some of the club’s regular coaches. For next season we will be introducing a Hockey Academy. This is for invited players who are seeking to develop their skills to play at a higher level and/or to play at county/regional level. We have again entered teams in the England Hockey Junior outdoor competitions at Under 14, Under 16 and Under 18 and will be entering teams at Under 16 and 18 for the indoor competition. Training Training starts week commencing 3rd September and the training nights are as follows: Wednesdays 6.00 to 7.30: Junior training – this is open to all players including beginners, Under 14’s and older. Thursdays 6.30 to 8.00: Belper Academy training – this is for invited players. For those players who are playing on a Saturday for a Ladies side then they will be able to train with their respective Ladies side as follows: 1st/2nd team training will be on Wednesday night after junior training. 3rd/4th team training will be on a Monday night.
