TARGET 1000 – Let’s aim for 1000 people to come through those gates on Saturday to show the proud and dominant force that Waverley HC is.

The day kicks off strongly with our two impressive under 9’s teams taking the field against Doncaster’s best under 9’s. The Under 9 Panthers will be looking to cement their 1st and 2nd places on the ladder – The next generation look strong!

This Saturday the 25th of July the Waverley Hockey Club will be hosting a massive day down at its spiritual home, Ashwood Reserve.

Day
During the day the bar will be open for business serving the coldest beveridges, a big BBQ and spit roast will be fired up – not to mention the top class hockey on display from 12:30pm until 6:30pm.

Footy, Food & Friends
As the night rolls on the Big Screen will be wheeled out to provide a first class viewing of the AFL clash between the top placed Saints Vs. third placed Western Bulldogs. The bar will continue continue into the night and food will be available.

Featured Event
Last but not least the night will reach its climax when the Annual Waverley Snail Races take place in the club rooms. The event is a very controversial subject after last years champion snail was disqualified after officials discovered it was actually Ant Green with a shoe box on his back and the only snail to use elbows during the race.

All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you all at the club!
