Assistance Required U9 Carnival 24 July

Members and Families,

This Saturday, 24 July, Ryde is hosting the third North Area U9 carnival. The carnival is scheduled to run 9.00am – 11.00am.

The carnival is a busy affair as there are four games in progress at any one time (across the field). We are anticipating 80 U9 players and their families.

We will need assistance in setting up the field – boards are used to separate each of four playing fields – assistance in the canteen, assistance in running the teams and assistance in umpiring the games. Umpires do not need to be badged – if you simply have a love of the game and you can apply broadly the attached rules – you will be great.

Even if you can just spare an hour – or be there simply at 8.30am, or 11.00am to help construct/deconstruct the fields – that would be fantastic.

Regards,
Meg Smith

Hooked in2 Hockey at Ryde Hunters Hill Hockey Club

With one eye on the forthcoming hockey season the Ryde Hunters Hill Hockey Club has successfully concluded its second annual Hook in2 Hockey Clinic.

The clinics are designed as an introduction to hockey, and for aspiring hockey players to ‘give hockey a go’. Hook in2 Hockey is a Hockey Australia initiative which is strongly supported by Hockey NSW. All participants receive four sessions of coaching, a hockey stick, shin guards and a ball!

The Club welcomed twenty participants, aged between 4 and 13, to the clinic which was conducted over four days. Coaching Coordinators John Cullen and Steve Dunn ensured that the clinic was constantly on the move with a series of drills and exercises. Each day’s clinic was concluded with an eagerly contested game, with the coaching assistants, all senior players at Ryde, acting as supporters, mentors and umpires!

The participants welcomed the support they received from current players and coaches including Lily Brazel, Ben Campey, Chris Campey, Matt Cullen, Ben Craig, Tom Craig, Josie de Wall, Tom de Waal, Maddie English, Michael English, Gill McCartney, David Moore and Declan Moore.

Despite the warm weather there were smiles all round with everyone keen to return on the following day. Meg Smith, RHHHC Junior President, labelled the clinic a great success: “First and foremost, everyone has fun, and secondly the clinic introduces kids, who have not played hockey, to the sport. They may not choose to pursue hockey instantly but they may keep it in mind in the future” she said.
