HOOKIN2HOCKEY – GIVE EVERY KID A GOHookin2Hockey is Australia&#39;s national junior grassroots hockey program. It provides children with the opportunity to learn the basic necessary hockey skills, develop fundamental motor skills and make friends all while beginning their love of hockey.OUR SPORTING PRIDEHookin2Hockey delivers opportunities for children to experience moments that will last with them long after they first pick up a hockey stick. The sense of pride after achieving that first successful pass, hitting the ball into the back of the goal, even just running onto the pitch and experiencing everything that is great about hockey.OUR IMPACTWe believe Hookin2Hockey will introduce new players to a game that provides fun, friendship and a lifelong love of an iconic Olympic sport. The opportunity to engage in physical activity in a safe environment should be available to all Australian children regardless of location, financial situation, gender or ethnicity.The new Hookin2Hockey model provides flexibility and an affordable opportunity for kids to be physically active.
