Our hockey coaching courses are aimed at boys and girls aged 7-14. Led by National League player and Level 2 coach Nikki Ward and assisted by Level 1 coach and National Premier League player Sam Ward, children will be split by age and ability.
The course is appropriate for beginners right through to county standard players and is ideal for those who want to learn more about the sport, or who wish to refine their skills before the start of the new season. The focus of the camps will be the development of core skills including passing, ball carrying, elimination skills and defensive skills through fun, exciting practices and game play. There will also be the opportunity for competitive game play to improve decision making skills and game awareness and understanding. Hockey sticks can be supplied if required, although we ask players to bring their own gum shields and shin pads. Coaching takes place from 9.45am-3.45pm daily.
We are offering a 3 day non-residential course over the Easter holidays, and a 4 day pre-season training opportunity as part of Uppingham Summer School's Festival of Sport in August, with residential as well as non-residential options.
