We have Mark Knowles returning again in 2020 which is another great opportunity to learn from the best. On top of this we are lucky to have Chris Leslie (former Black Sticks Assistant coach and Canterbury HP coach) joining the weekend, which is awesome. This will give us a little insight into how and why Canterbury are so dominate in their Rep program, something we can learn from!!

This is a great opportunity for the players to get some awesome ideas from Mark and Chris around their skills of play. It is  also an awesome opportunity again for you as coaches to observe, listen and take notes on how/ what Mark and Chris coach – how they present and how they get the players to think and learn in the time they have with the players.

This opportunity is open to any coach looking to up-skill before the start of the 2020 hockey season. There is no cost for this opportunity.

We will be looking to meet briefly to talk about the session, then get on the turf and listen and watch the coaches in their element. We will have the opportunity to ask any questions around the skills being shown and more importantly the delivery of the session. At the end we will have an opportunity just to reflect on what we have seen.
 
The hockey session we will observe will run on Saturday 18th January  1.00pm - 3.00pm. I would to meet at 12.30am and we will be finished with a debrief and questions and answer time with Chris and Mark
