Trials
Trials:
Boys - Monday 23 February
Girls - Tuesday 24 February
Exact time to be confirmed.
Further trial information will be emailed out after the first round.
All students who register, will be placed in a team, however in order to ensure your child has been placed in the team that is right for them, trials will take place. The trials will be held at NX either late in the school day and/or after school. Although we appreciate the support from parents, due to the format of the trials it is advised that parents do not attend.
Equipment
All players are required to provide their own hockey equipment.
This includes - hockey stick, mouthguard, and shin pads.
Goalie equipment is provided.
Selection process
We go through a very thorough selection process to finalise our teams and players will be placed in a team that our selectors have determined best suits their ability and experience. While inevitably there will be some movement of players, both up and down teams, it is important to remember that this movement can be a result of the following factors:
- New players who didn’t play last year can also create movement for other players, especially if they are placed in a higher team, resulting in other players moving down to a lower team.
- Individual development and growth over the summer months. If individual players have put in an extra effort and completed additional training over the holiday, this can definitely show during trials, resulting in higher performance on the court and some movement between teams.
We understand that some students will have questions regarding the trial process and eventually the team selection – if your child does, please ask them to see Mrs Thomas in Room 16.
As per our Sports Selection Policy, no correspondence regarding team selection will be entered into. If you wish to view it, please download the document at the bottom of this page.
