Overview
Our Under 10 Girls squad principle objective is to make sure that all the girls enjoy their training and match experience whilst building a solid base of hockey skills. They learn best when they are happy. We strive to provide an environment where they have fun whilst learning at the same time. The better they get, the more they want to improve and the more they enjoy it.
Training
The girls have training from 6pm to 7.30pm on a Friday evening during the hockey season, which runs from September until March.
Fixtures
This season we will be part of a new MegaLeague struture aimed at providing the best possible match experience for clubs like ours. On top of this we have organised a whole host of friendly fixtures to ensure that the girls get the opportunity to put the skills they learn on a Friday night into action on a Sunday.
Surrey Competitions
The U10 girls will also participate in both the Surrey Cup and Surrey Plate competitions towards the end of the season, playing against other Clubs in Surrey for County honours. We hope that with both the Home Counties League matches and the friendly fixtures we have organised that all girls will get the opportunity to participate in matches during the season and will be well prepared by the time the Surrey Cup and Plate come around.
Coaches and Helpers
We have a dedicated group of coaches, parent assistants and Young Leaders led by Cate Newnes-Smith. Kate Wheeler looks after the parent communications and other administrative tasks for the group.
We encourage parents' support with both hockey and non-hockey roles. We are always looking for time-keepers, umpires, supportive spectators, match reporters, and more. Many hands make light work so please let any of us know if you can help with any role - big or small.
