Once again, we have: • Conducted hockey fixture competitions for juniors, seniors and masters, at five turf venues and two grass venues, for over 3,300 registered players. Player numbers have again remained static in both junior and senior divisions, but with a noticeable decrease in U7 Rookies. We need to put some significant effort into understanding the how and why of this decrease and identify ways to address in the coming year. • Sent 19 teams to compete at State Championships for Super League, U18, U15, U13 and Masters, as well as 4 teams competing in the U11 Southern Cross at Downey Park. The ability of these teams is evident in that top two placings were achieved in nine of the fifteen divisions. • Continued with the practice of asking clubs to nominate the senior turf divisions they wish to play in, as well as not setting a limit on the number of dual registered players in a club. This has seen two clubs, South West United and QUT, fielding combined teams in the Division 1 and 2 divisions to enable them to retain players in these divisions. Whilst first year success on the field was limited, it has enabled both clubs to provide a pathway to top grade divisions for their developing players. We have established a sixth division for senior turf to accommodate club requests, on the expectation that the extra turf at Burringbar would become available during the season to accommodate the increase in teams. Whilst the second turf was not completed in time for games to be played there, it will be ready for 2020. We continue to work with Brisbane Hockey Association (BHA) to administer Hockey Brisbane Inc, and with BHA and Kedron Wavell Services Hockey Club (KWSHC) to administer the Brisbane Hockey Management Group (BHMG), which manages the Burringbar turf facility. The second turf has been completed and the remaining grass field remediated. Work is now underway to construct the technical bench and dugouts thanks to a State Government facility grant.

  • Celebratingcelebrating
    CelebratingCelebrating 11/11/1995 - 11/11/2020 Foreword Letter from current President Steve Stewart Hockey Queensland today spans 23 Associations and includes Master’s and Indoor Hockey, but that has not always been the case. In the 1990s a group of people had a vision of unification for our sport to enhance its management and provide opportunities and pathways for its athletes. Their efforts were rewarded in 1995 with the birth of Hockey Queensland (HQ) as a unified male and female State Sporting Organisation. The concept of HQ was first seriously proposed in 1993 by Daphne Pirie and Jim Quaite, the Presidents of Queensland Women’s Hockey Association and Queensland Hockey Association respectively. Through their diligence and the efforts of others, including the Steering Committee of Dennis Binnington, John Giles, Julie McNeil, Elsie Quaite and Janne Ellis we have evolved into the HQ of today. I consider the longevity of people’s involvement in hockey as one of the most endearing features of our sports culture, as many of the people who contributed to the creation of QWHA, QHA and of course HQ, are still involved in Hockey in Queensland. I would particularly like to thank Janne Ellis for her commitment to Hockey Queensland. Janne was there at the beginning and remains with us as our ‘historian’ and jack of all trades. Janne your contribution is appreciated. Go #TeamQLD, Steve Stewart Celebrating 25 years of Hockey Queensland On the 11th November 1995, Queensland Women’s Hockey Association and Queensland Men’s Hockey Association merged to form Hockey Queensland Incorporated. On the same date in 2020, Hockey Queensland Limited celebrates the silver anniversary of the amalgamation.

  • Active After-School Communities Report
    Active After-school Communities program and Hockey Australia MAY 2011 1 | P a g e INTRODUCTION The Active After-school Communities (AASC) program has now been running for over six years. During that time the program has liaised with state and national sporting organisations to help local clubs increase their membership base by exposing primary school aged children to their sport. Two years ago the Australian Sports Commission (ASC) started to prepare specific National Sporting Organisation (NSO) Reports to detail each sport’s involvement in the AASC program. These reports combine a statistical analysis as well as a qualitative review of the information, some examples of best practice case studies and any media articles that may have been generated. The intent of these reports is for NSOs to utilise the information at a national, state and regional level to help develop their sport. I would also encourage NSOs to use the report as a basis for the sport development officers and the AASC’s Regional Coordinators to collaborate and plan deliberate strategies for upcoming terms to promote the transition of children, families and new coaches from the AASC program into respective feeder clubs. Some transition strategies that have proved successful for many sports are as follows: Coordinating a ‘Come ‘n Try Gala Day’ at the end of a term. Delivering a clinic at selected sites to promote membership to a designated feeder club or participation in a modified junior sport program. Coordinating a cluster of schools/Outside School Hours Care Services (OSHCS) to attend the local club and organise a registration or promotional day.
