Everything you need to know about Junior Hockey at Maitland!

Published Wed 05 Feb 2025

Maitland's Junior Hockey for U13s will start in Term 2 from 30th April on Wednesdays with sessions starting from 5:00pm for U6s and U9s and from 6:00pm for U13s. These are a great option for new players as they include learning to play / coaching followed by games. All sessions are at the Maitland Hockey Centre in Elgin St Maitland.

We are also planning a High School comp for Saturday mornings from early April. You can nominate for this at:

First step to join us is to register at Registration - Maitland Hockey Inc

For 12 years & under, we will be running Hockey Australia's Hookin2Hockey program this year.

  • Cost for 8 years & under is $106.24 which includes full year registration and turf fees for Term 2.
  • Cost for 12 years & under is $91.34 which includes registration and turf fees for Term 2 only. There is also an option to purchase an equipment pack from Hockey NSW at the time of registration which includes a stick, shin pads and ball.

For 13's to 18's, registration is $129.87, which covers the whole year - Winter (Term 2) & Summer (Term 4) comps. There will also be a $60 per Term turf fee which we will invoice once the season starts.

We will provide the uniform (loan) and do also have sticks for loan. Players need to have shin pads and mouthguard (which we sell for $12). We also sell stick packs, which include stick and shin pads, for approx $45.

Once registered you just need to turn up when it starts. We usually sort things out on the first night.

It’s a good time to join Maitland Hockey as we also have some free events for juniors planned for this year thanks to a couple of grants we have received:

In March we are running a 5 week coaching clinic with former Hockeyroo Kate Jenner which is free for our young players thanks to a grant from the NSW government. You can find the link and register for this here: Coaching & Development Clinics - FREE - Maitland Hockey Inc  We are also planning more of these later in the year.

Finally we have an annual Carnival in August where junior teams from around the region come along to play.

There is certainly a lot on this year at Maitland Hockey so why not join in the fun!
