News

10th November 

 

Congratulations to the 4 Ipswich players who made the England Junior squads and commiseration to the ones who narrowly missed out.

Jonny Gall -England U16

Tom Dunnett, Michael Franklin, Josh Godfrey -England U18

Freddie Whitfield -England u18 Non-travelling reserve

Following on from the Tier 2 Junior Regional Performance Centre (JRPC) activity in October and early November, England’s Under 16 and Under 18 international training squads have been named.

The U16 boys and girls squads will take part in further assessment camp activity at Bisham Abbey over the weekend of 21-23 November 2008.  The U18 boys and girls’ assessment camps will be held at HMS Temeraire in Portsmouth on the same dates.

The squad announcements come after the England Hockey Futures Cup at Cannock HC, the new format competition replacing the old boys’ and girls’ U16 and U18 regional tournaments, and following the completion of a High Performance Assessment Camp (HiPAC) for U15s and U17s.

England Hockey’s National Age Group coaches and managers were present at the Futures Cup to watch the players represent their JRPC clusters as the Pennine Pumas, Mercia Lynx, Saxon Tigers and Wessex Leopards.

The final National Age Group squads for 2009 will be selected from the November assessment camps.

11 Ipswich players make new Regional Squads

The 16 squads for next week's EH Futures Cup at Cannock Hockey Club have now been confirmed. The event will be held at Cannock Hockey Club from Thursday 30th October until Sunday 2nd November.

The teams, playing under the names of Pennine Pumas, Mercia Lynx, Saxon Tigers and Wessex Leopards, have been selected from the 12 Junior Regional Performance Centres (JRPCs) that will form a key part of England Hockey's new Single System.

The Pennine Pumas athletes come from the JRPCs at Newcastle, Leeds and North Manchester.  The Mercia Lynx players all hail from the JRPCs at Nottingham/Loughborough, North Birmingham and Oxford while the Saxon Tigers consist of players from Bury St Edmunds, St Albans and Oxted/Tonbridge JRPCs.  The JRPCs at Bristol, Exeter and Winchester have come together to form the Wessex Leopards.

The players were all selected for their respective squads after the 'Tier 1' JRPC activity which involved the Junior Regional Performance Centres in each area playing against each other.

Teams will play at Under 16 and Under 18 in both boys and girls competitions at the tournament, which acts as a selection ground for England's National Age Group Squads as well as providing good quality competition for the athletes.

Congratulations to the following Ipswich players:

Girls U16 -Michaela Chidgley

Girls U18-Chloe Hunnable, Alex Paske, Sarah Glanvill

Boys U16 -Jamie Bowden, Jon Gall

Boys U18 -Freddie Whitfield, Tom Dunnett (VC), Michael Franklin, Josh Godfrey, Adam Miller

08-09 Junior Training Sessions

Hope you have all had a great summer.  The hockey season is approaching fast with the first Junior Hockey session scheduled for 7 Sep.  This year we have an ambitious programme that will cover training for beginners, competitive matches and a new Hockey Academy for developing advanced skills:

Sunday coaching - 2 age group sessions (6-11) and (11-15) all welcome
Suffolk Youth League - U9, U11, U13 & U16
HA Youth Cup - U15 & U18
Hockey Academy - for age group (13-16) who want to develop advanced skills - details to follow


In order to make this programme successful, we will need help from parent volunteers with administration at Sunday coaching, coaching assistance and team management.  So please volunteer to help if you are able.

We are delighted that Andy Swindin has agreed to be Head Coach and will lead the Sunday sessions.  The first session will be on 7 Sep following the same format of previous years: 

10-11am coaching for 6-11 boys and girls
11-12.30pm coaching for 11-15 boys and girls

Look forward to seeing you at Henley Road on 7 Sep.
