This Friday the long-awaited 2016 Intermediate hockey season begins for our three hockey squads.

Pictured above are brother and sister James and Louise Nicolson holding the coveted Intermediate grade hockey trophy which the Tahuna "A" squad has won four times in the last five years. Louise was our captain in 2012 while James led the "A"s through an unbeaten season last year.

It's great to have so many players involved again this year and once again there is a place for everyone from beginners through to experienced Otago players.

We look forward to lots of support from the sidelines for our games each Friday. The draw is always posted on the Otago Hockey Association website as well as at school. Good luck to our teams in their first games of the season.
