Those adult team players that have been patiently sitting on our waiting lists have now all been contacted to invite them along to the Dragons’ Coaching Sessions. Our lead coaches for the Men’s and Ladies sessions bring significant playing and coaching experience from the National League, so this is a fantastic opportunity for players to learn from those that have been there and done it.
It is great to welcome the latest group of players to Norwich Dragons, with players from Norwich School, Norwich High School for Girls as well as players wanting to Get Back Into hockey that haven’t played since school.
Our Young Dragons section continues to see huge interest, however we take our duty of care from a safety and also quality of coaching perspective very seriously, so waiting lists remain in place for most Young Dragon age groups. This is constantly reviewed and whilst new enquiries go on the list initially, we aim to move players through to the coaching sessions as quickly as possible.
We have very strong links in place with most local schools across Norwich, South Norfolk and surrounding areas, with high numbers of youngsters joining us from Norwich High School for Girls, Norwich School, Town Close, Langley, Hewett, Hobart, Acle, Framlingham Earl, as well as many local Primary and Junior schools such as Trowse, Cringleford, Lakenham and Bignold.
We are developing some exciting ideas for next season, across the Club, so watch this space.
