Hockey

Overview:

The Phoenix Hockey Programme aims to provide a dedicated pathway from development to competitive for training and also competitive opportunities within UWCSEA Dover and as they develop into the senior teams.

The essential aims of the program are to have fun and learn to play safely while developing fundamental and advanced skills in the players. Players will also be coached to develop tactical understanding through game-sense challenges and mini-matches. Every student will be provided with age and skill appropriate training and through the programme they will learn to understand core values while developing the soft skills of playing in a team.

Trial:

If the student is uncertain about committing to the entire Season, he/she can trial for one session.

Please note that the trial session is chargeable.

I worry less about results and focus more on performance, with successful outcomes in the latter the former is inevitably achieved. Finally, I see success very differently from many others. To be a champion is someone who always gives their best, come what may they have an unshakeable resolve to give their utmost. This is the attitude I hope to cultivate wherever I coach. Winning titles and the like is also important but not more than the individual effort. The sum of everyone’s endeavour will deliver success I am sure of that.
