A message posted from Hockey Victoria:

Hockey Victoria is looking for help to further promote and develop the game of indoor hockey by providing an indoor competition that is attractive and accessible to as many players as possible. We would like to be able to offer all affiliates an indoor competition that will encourage as many players as possible to participate.

Your feedback is important in helping us to plan a competition that will make this possible. The information that is submitted by you will be considered by the Indoor Sub Committee. If you are interested in joining the sub committee please look on the HV website.

With this in mind a survey has been created. HV asks that all clubs and the previous indoor season’s team contacts complete the attached survey and return to HV by June 30th (end of the month). It is attached as both a word document and a pdf document, so that it can be completed and sent back via return email if desired.

Indoor hockey is a fast paced game that hones the basic skills needed in outdoor. It can be enjoyed all year round by all ages and all skill levels.

FYI – In case you have missed it, there is an article on the HV website advising that an Indoor Sub Committee is currently being formed. HV is seeking expressions of interest form all interested persons.

This season, the Club has arranged player insurance away from that offered through HV (at considerable saving to us all). Should you need this service, please contact Brenda 0433 170 001
