We also aim to make hockey the 'game for everyone' - a sport that is accessible and enjoyable for male and female Australians of all ages and backgrounds. Our Mission Achieving this vision will require the collective efforts of the Australian hockey community. This community includes the leading administrative bodies - Hockey Australia and the State Hockey Associations - and the many thousands of volunteers within regional associations, hockey clubs and schools throughout the country. It encompasses hockey players and coaches, from our national teams through to beginners and club players. All members of the community have a part to play. For its part, Hockey Australia's mission is: ""ToTo eencourage,ncourage, promote,promote, developdevelop andand administeradminister hockeyhockey atat allall levelslevels inin orderorder toto mmaintainaintain AustralianAustralian hockeyhockey asas a worldworld leaderleader andand a gamegame forfor everyone.everyone.

Our Formation Hockey Australia formed in November 2000 following the amalgamation of the Australian Hockey Association and Women’s Hockey Australia and is a full member of the International Hockey Federation (FIH). It comprises membership of all eight States and Territories. Each State Association is comprised of regional associations, which are in turn made up of clubs. In some States, clubs affiliate directly with the State body. Hockey Australia exists to provide Australians with the opportunity to play hockey from junior levels through to elite competition, including the Olympic Games. It is responsible for delivering these benefits to Australian hockey players through its Member States and ensuring hockey in Australia achieves consistent success, a strong and positive public profile and continuing player and spectator support at all levels.
