Newark Hockey Club Summer Coaching

These sessions will be run in accordance with England Hockey guidelines to ensure the safety of players and coaches.
We are grateful to The Magnus School for offering us access to the pitch, but please be aware there is no access to toilet facilities on site. We are also indebted to our team of volunteer coaches who are giving up their time to enable us to offer this opportunity to our members.
