Hockey is a game played widely across the world, by men,
women & juniors. It is a game that is fun to play and
has the ability to be simplified to encourage young people
to get involved from an early age. Participants range from
the under 11yrs playing the popular Mini Hockey Game to international
level competitors.
The game is played eleven a side, with teams made up of Defenders,
Midfielders, Attackers, and a Goalkeeper. Played on a pitch
91 metres x 55 meters, each player has a stick with a rounded
head to play the ball. The ultimate aim is to score goals
by putting the ball in the other team’s goal.
It is the aim of the Lincolnshire Sports Partnership Staff
to encourage the transition of young hockey players from school
arenas in to local clubs and teams. The clubs and coaches
involved in this process are developing ever more through
continued investment in areas of training, research and funding.
The evolution of talent identification schemes and talent
training camps should ensure the production of talented individuals
and maximize their potential.
