Indoor hockey is a variation of field hockey played in the off season (late Sept till end Feb) with modified rules:
-
smaller playing court with sideboards;
-
reduced number of players on court;
-
no hitting the ball, only pushing;
-
the ball must be played along the ground only.
This allows participation for players in a faster, more exciting and safer environment. We are limited to the number of teams than can be accepted due to our venue availability and size despite operating seven (7) days a week in season. Indoor hockey participation is considered a more 'social' form of the game despite pathways to international teams & FIH World Cup. Notwithstanding the deemed 'social' nature, we elect to formulate and manage teams into a structured divisions with fixtures based upon grading of submitted team nominations.
Players will need to form their own teams (min. of 8 and max. of 12) either through friends or hockey clubs, then submit a Team Nomination Form prior to the closing date. Teams will then be 'sorted' into divisions and advised outcomes, any grading games, competition fixtures and team fees payable.
