Junior Club Competition
Sussex Hockey is responsible for running a range of Junior Competition for Clubs in the county. Junior competition is focused as much on fun and togetherness, as on competitiveness. Our current club competition activity includes:
Under 8 Festivals
Multiple times per season, Sussex Clubs come together to host small, tournament style festivals of game play for the youngest participants of our sport. These are focused on fun, learning and having a great time meeting other players across the county.
Under 10 Festivals & Tournaments
At Under 10 age groups, teams split in to genders. They move to playing 7-a-side, half-pitch games, which give the basis of all future competition in the sport. Sussex Hockey organises both regular club festival days and two county wide tournaments; The Ron Easton and the county In2Hockey tournaments..
Under 12 Festivals & Tournaments
