Midlands Hockey's High Performance Camps are coming back once again, but in 2011, things will be a bit different.  With the introduction in 2010 of the Fetch programme providing a pre-season upskilling opportunity, the summer camps will place a much heavier emphasis on decision making exercises and small games, ensuring that you leave the camps with better decision-making skills and an increased understanding of hockey.

Camps this year are by invitation only and if you played representative age group hockey within the Midlands region in 2010, you will receive an invitation before the end of September 2010.  If you played rep hockey this year, and do not receive an invitation by this time, please email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .  Please note that spaces at the camps are limited.
