The National Masters competition for 2012 will be hosted by Manawatu hockey with games being played in Palmerston North and Levin 4-10 March 2012.
Mens Squads Announced
Apologies for the delay in this announcement. The consultative nature of the selection panels, the high calibre of people seeking selection and the emergence of many new-to-Masters players has caused some (positive) headaches. Some quality players have missed selection.
Should you wish to go on the transfer lists to play for other provinces please urgently contact Donna Mote - info@wellingtonhockey.org.nz
A note outlining accommodation arrangements & costs, uniforms, managers & coaches and practice schedules will follow shortly. Practises are likely to start around Wellington Anniversary weekend (late January). Please ensure you remain active over the summer break (it's too late to get tournament fit in February !!)Congratulations to the following players for being selected for the Masters Tournament in Palmerston North, March 2012.
