Hockey Program
The UAA NCAS Hockey program forms an underpinning program for the Hockey NSW (HNSW) Athlete Acceleration Program (AAP) that can see athletes progress through the athlete pathway and be given the support they need to progress to the next level.
Hockey NSW provides support and endorsement for the NCAS program to develop and support pre-elite Hockey Players.
The Hockey Program is heavily supported by Underwriting Agencies Australia (UAA) and we thank them for their ongoing support of Regional Academies of Sport.
The purpose of the hockey program is to:
- Provide a pre-elite environment for the athletes to develop
- Give athletes access to quality services and programs as they progress through the HNSW pathway
- Prepare athletes for the upcoming Hockey season
- Provide a coach excellence program for regional coaches with the support of HNSW Regional Coaching Coordinator (RCC) Network
- Provide umpire education
Supporting the Academy program are the regional hockey associations of Port Macquarie/Hastings Hockey Association, Grafton Hockey Association, Far North Coast Hockey Association, and Hockey Coffs Coast.
Regional Academies of Sport are currently working with Hockey NSW to develop a new program format; further details will be made available in the coming weeks.
