HKHC : NEWSLETTER #1

Welcome to 2018 with the Hinemoa-Kaiapoi Hockey Club!

Registration

Registrations for the 2018 are now open on the HKHC website. We have decided due to the large number of online registrations in 2017, that this will be our sole way of registering for this season.

Log on to our website: www.kaiapoihockey.co.nz and click on the registration button at the top of the page to register your interest now.

As in 2017, registration will only be complete when a deposit of $50 for Junior/U18, or $100 for Senior members (a down payment on your fees) is made to the club account.

 Potential Start Dates

U18 boys will be following the format the U18 girls had in the 2017 season – this means they are now in the senior grades which run from the week of 8th April – 26th August. Mid-week open senior team competitions run from the week of 9th April – 28th August.

Junior grades usually start the first week of the second term (to be confirmed)

 Annual General Meeting

Our AGM for 2018 is to be held on Sunday 4th March 10am at our clubrooms on Smith St, Kaiapoi.

 Everyone is welcome!

 As usual we are always looking for keen people to lend a hand in the running of our club and there is a changing of a few of the key positions this year. We are on the look-out for a new Treasurer, so if you have any skills with numbers and money and would be able to help out, please contact the club.

Junior Preseason Skills

We are looking at holding a few preseason skills training sessions for primary and intermediate school aged children at our Kaiapoi High School turf. If your child is keen for a run around, or has a friend that may be interested in playing this year, this would be an ideal time to have a go!  (Potential dates 4th, 11th, 18th March)
