Welcome to the Devonport Dragons Junior Hockey Club The 2011/2012 season has now finished. We had the presentation session following on from a dreadfully windy and damp session. The awards presented were:
Charlotte Bates was also presented an award for her coaching support to the club. Steve Wherry, Jean Jane and Tina Phillips were given awards to recognise the many years support they have given the club. Robin Barlow won the golden spoon ... for forgetting to order two of the trophies ... and is still here to type this !! The Friday night league is complete for this year. Details and fixtures can be found on the Plymouth Hockey Development Website The results have also been anounced
As a club our intention is more about ensuring that all that want to play games get the opportunities to do so - yes we like to be competitive but supporting youth players in sport is the key aim.
The timings are the same for Sundays 10:00 until 11:30. The weekly training fee is £3.00 The club has enrolled in a club wide hockey insurance scheme - for details click here. To cover the costs of this scheme there will be one-off charge of £2.50 levied during the initial training payment. We are looking for more younger players in particular, and still have the offer of the first two sessions being free. To start playing you will need some trainers and shinpads and preferably a mouth guard and we can supply the the other equipment. Membership Forms It is a club requirement that each member of the club has a completed membership form. The main purpose is to ensure we have up to date contact details in the event of an emergency. They also provide the team managers with the contact details to allow them to call up their teams.
City involvement The Devonport Dragons and the two parent clubs actively promote hockey across the city, organising both the Plymouth Friday night Junior Hockey League and the Mixed Summer League along with additional Badger and are also active in schools. The maintenance of the Plymouth Hockey Development Group website has also been taken on by the club. The Friday night league is managed through the Plymouth Hockey Development Group (www.phdg.org.uk) for details. Organising leagues is usually time consuming and last year was extra busy having to rearrange the games after two cancellations (Friday 13th! October when we had a storm and then it was frozen out a couple of weeks later)
