π **What an incredible turnout for our free hockey camps!** π
Over the past four weeks, weβve welcomed **176 children** participants to our camps, with some loving it so much that some came back for more! π
π **Hereβs where our hockey stars came from:**
– **39%** live within 10 minutes walk of the pitch
– **65%** live within two miles
It was amazing to see the mix of experience:
– **48%** had never played before
– **24%** had only played once or twice or at school
Weβre especially proud that a number of our participants came from communities identified as βdeprivedβ by the Indices of Multiple Deprivation, showing that hockey truly is a sport for everyone! π
**Why do we do this?** Because we believe in the power of sport to bring people together, to inspire, and to create opportunities. Our goal is to make hockey accessible to all, no matter your background or experience. π
And the best part? **Our weekly sessions start on 5th September**, and we canβt wait to see you there! All participants are more than welcome to join us as we continue to grow, learn, and have fun on the pitch! Want to find out more?! Just get in touch! π
None of this would have been possible without the dedication of our **22 incredible coaches and volunteers**. Thank you for making these camps such a success! πͺ
Letβs keep growing the game and creating more opportunities for our community!
