NEW!! LOUYAA Field Hockey Spring GOALIE Clinic
We are offering small group training during two of our Spring Clinic dates. Our goalie instructor, Sophia Hamilton, is a former collegiate field hockey goalie, head varsity coach at Tuscarora High School and Alpha Field Hockey Club Coach. Coach Hamilton brings us a wealth of knowledge and LOUYAA is excited for this opportunity to work with her for our first ever goalie training clinic. The groups will have no more than 4 goalies.
Goalies can register for one (1) session or both. Registration fee is per session your goalie attends. *IF your goalie is still young and not specialized as a "full time" goalie (meaning he/she also plays on the field), he/she can register for the Spring Clinic and attend the goalie session at no additional cost. But you must still "register" for the goalie clinic for planning purposes.
Grade Levels: 3rd through 8th grade
Location: Ballenger Creek Park, Chuck Foreman Turf
Time: 8:00 am - 10:00 am
Dates:
April 29 and/or May 6- pick one or both
GOALIE ONLY Registration Fee: $40 per session (NO Fee if paid and registered for the Spring Clinic)
Field Hockey Equipment Needed:
full goalie gear/stick (can borrow if you don't have)
mouth guard

Looking forward to the spring season!
