Tuesday training sessionshave been going well and the fundraising sausage sizzlesare proving popular. Thank you parents and players, with your support we are purchasing new junior game shirts.
Wednesdayis an opportunity for more game time! Yes, our junior Yr 6-8's can use the 4.30 pm - 5.30pm time slot for a home game. With 22 boys registering and keen to play, we decided to provide another opportunity for a turf game. This game is open to all boys and girls in the Yr 6-8 age group.
We also run a social seniors game from 6.00 pm - 7.00 pm, for new comers, past players and any seniors keen to squeeze more turf time into their week. We have Radio Margaret River playing so we can listen to Errol Beere's DJ session whilst we we play! Great fun so come and join us! Please be a registered MRHC player.
The committee continues to develop the club, we are are looking into purchasing two more training goals and the posts and protective netting for the fence line behind the goals. If you are keen to support us financially as a local business or with your time and ideas for fundraising, please get in touch, we would love to hear from you.
Our website has all the team info such as training times, including team night and extra skills session options, the rules of hockey and our online shop for all your club uniforms and merchandise, so please take a look!
Finally we have some new arrival notices, and we're not talking about new merchandise - see below for further info.
