Avon Junior League

Our junior teams take part in the U10 and U12 mixed Avon Junior Hockey League. The league is a series of 7-a-side mixed festivals and tournaments run throughout the season. The 2021/ 2022 season was the first year we have entered the league and our juniors are relishing the opportunity for some competitive hockey and we’ve already had some great feedback!

Just wanted to say, the festival today was  my daughter’s very first experience of playing in a “proper” match (and only the third week since she joined SGHC). It has meant to the world to her to be involved today; she is absolutely buzzing now and it’s done heaps for her confidence, so thank you so much to everyone involved for giving her the chance today and being so kind to her. A lovely start to hopefully a lifelong love of team sports! Thank you again.

If you are interested in joining SGHC juniors, please email Jane Wooster at sghcyouth@gmail.com for further details.
