Ipswich Hockey Clubs popular Summer League moves into it's 7th year with
an even bigger and better league.
Ipswich
Hockey Club is delighted that 21 teams have entered this years
Summer League. This means that about 70 games of hockey will
be played over the next 8 weeks involving in excess of 100
players each week.
The
first week of the league will commence on Monday 4th
May 2009.
This
year we will be running five leagues – three ladies and two
men’s. The make up of the leagues has been influenced by the
position teams came in the 2007 and 2008 leagues.
Following
comments made last year, and requests from teams about
timings, the start times for games have been amended to:
- 7:00pm
at Henley Road (although an earlier start could be
arranged between relevant teams – subject to the
availability of light)
- 7:00pm
and 8.30pm at Tuddenham Road
We
have held entry fee levels at those of previous years (£25
per game per team). Each team will be invoiced at the end of
the summer league. This should allow teams enough time to
collect match fees (approx £2 per player per game) during the
summer league. The Finals Day will be Saturday 11th
July and will include as many teams as possible having a
chance to play. We will give at least 7 days notice to of the
Finals Day schedule to each participating team.
With
the additional new rules coming into play in the 2009/2010
season, we have decided that teams should ‘trial’ these
new rules in summer league. This will allow as many of us as
possible to get our heads around them before the leagues start
again in September!
We
are grateful for the continued support of many local clubs who
participate in the Summer League. If you have any ideas as to
how we would improve the Summer League then please let me
know.
