Safety Notices

Mouth guards and shin guards

It is compulsory for all Juniors to wear mouth guards and shin guards at every training and every game. If players DO NOT wear them, they will NOT be allowed to take the field. This is a Hockey Australia, Hockey Victoria and a Hockey Albury-Wodonga Rule.

Face Masks

The Club has had a set of 4 face masks for 2 years. It has been decided to encourage all teams to use them for games and we will be
purchasing more sets. We would like to see the Juniors in particular using the Face Masks.

We understand that the clubs members will have other hockey or sport commitments on this night however by running the same session three times we hope this provides all members of the hockey community a chance to come and meet the HV staff and opening discuss the plans for courses, programs, school visitations and events for 2015.

 

I look forward to seeing you all in Albury.

 

Regards

 

Andrew
