2021 Indoor Hockey & Pre-Season Training
Unfortunately, we have decided to no longer participate in the upcoming Giants indoor hockey league due to the increased Covid-risks related to using an indoor facility. Although we are very disappointed, we believe the risk is not justifiable compared to outdoor hockey. We have put together our own training programme as an alternative to enable our kids to stay active. Please see the below overview of outdoor training possibilities. We will adhere to all required Covid safety measures.
Please contact Alridge directly for all queries/bookings. Reminder these are pre-season sessions up until we start our own outdoor season on the 6th March.

Please remember it is club policy that no dogs, bicycles, own alcohol allowed at the Astro.
What does my child need for Practice?
Wanderers Hockey kit (T-shirt / socks / black skort or shorts – see below)
Hockey stick (we have hockey balls and it is better if your child does not use their own ball as it often gets lost)
Gum guard NB!!!!
Shin pads NB!!!!
Shoes with grip (NB: no soccer boots allowed on the astro)
Sun protection (later cold “protection”)
Water bottle – we have cups and water next to the field but most kids prefer their own water bottle
If allergic to bees etc please make sure the necessary medication is easily available in case of a bee sting and make the coaches aware
Kit
All Wanderers Junior hockey players must wear the Wanderers Hockey kit for all practices and tournaments.
