Hockey 8s to be played on Friday 19 and 26 October 2012 under lights at the Albury Hockey Centre.
We can now confirm the following four businesses have agreed to be team sponsors:
Hume Building Society
Health and Fitness Plus
Johnsons MME
Zen Home Energy
Hopefully we we will have more sponsors ready to sign up in the next week. We also have a commitment from the Border Mail and WIN TV to give the event support through their media.
70 Players have nominated to date and we are looking for another 25 men and 25 women to make up our teams.
You can nominate two ways - the easiest way by going to the Hockey 8s webpage and clicking on 'Nominate' and completing the electronic form or you can complete a form available at the Albury Hockey Centre Canteen - ask Vicki for a form.
This will be a fun event with interaction between players over 15 years of age of all playing strengths from different clubs.
The teams will be selected by the coaches in the week after our grand final day. All players selected will be advised by email and invited to attend a launch function to be held in early October where they will be told which team they are playing in and who their teammates will be.
If you wish to participate in what will be a unique event for our sport, while supporting a local charity and junior hockey development, now is the time to nominate before teams fill up.
