Hockey

Hockey is played during the games session in the autumn term for pupils in year 7 -10 where all girls participate fully. In the spring term year 11, 12 and 13 will now have the opportunity since the addition of the new all weather facility on site. The aim is to cater for the range of pupils needs and develop pupil’s knowledge and understanding of the sport. We operate a staff : pupil ratio of 1:10 to allow a high level of coaching and ensure pupils progress and develop their individual potential.

Since many pupils arrive with very little experience of hockey the first year is spent developing and ensuring pupils obtain safe and practical knowledge to participate in small sided games and local fixtures. Pupils of all ages are then able to continue their interest and attend training through the extra–curricular programme on offer. These are exciting times for girls sport and hockey due to the new all weather surface allowing additional training on site and a permanent facility for fixtures. Teams regularly participate in local fixtures, the Trinity Schools Tournament, local leagues, and national competitions and it is hoped the sport will continue to develop as it has over the past four years.
