Summer Hockey

Summer Hockey is a group of social competitions that run from roughly mid-October to early-March each year (with a break over Christmas, New Year and January). They consist of 10 rounds, plus 2 weeks of finals.

Competitions are offered in Mixed, Men's, Women's, and Masters. Matches are always played at the same, designated venue (for that particularly competition), at 7pm, 8pm & 9pm, on a set day of the week (and no, there's no training!).

Teams are open to anyone, whether you're a member of MUHC during the regular season, a member of another club, or don't play for a club at all.

2012-13 Summer Hockey

2012-13 Summer Hockey starts up the week of Monday 15th October.

Expressions of Interest

If you'd like to play Summer Hockey, please email your request to the Secretary, Em Rosse at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , by 9pm Friday 5th October, listing the competition(s) you'd like to play in. Please keep in mind the following:

• Expressions of interest run on a system of 'first in, first served', so the earlier you submit your interest, the better the chances you have of getting the competition you request.
• Teams are capped at:
  • 14 players for Men's & Women's comps
  • 15 players for Mixed comps (comprising 7 of each gender, and a goalkeeper of either gender)
  • 15 players for Masters comps
• If there are particular people who you would like to be in the same team with, you can request this, but it may not be possible to satisfy these requests.
• If you don't pay on time (see Fees below), you'll lose your spot in the team.
• If the competition you want to play in is full, you'll be placed on a waiting list in case someone pulls out/doesn't pay their fees.

We've entered teams in the following competitions (as at 18 September):

* Note: venue may change under HV discretion

Wanted: Team Managers

Are you interested in organising a MUHC summer team? Those who nominate for Team Manager will NOT have to pay fees (and no, you won't have to collect money from players and the hassles associated with it). Umpire payments will be arranged through the Treasurer.  Further details on receiving cash for umpire payments to be released once team managers have been appointed.

Fees

Summer hockey fees are $90 up front for the season. This cost is per competition that you're playing in (e.g. if you're playing in both a Monday Mixed team and a Tuesday Men's team, the cost would be $180 all up), and includes the cost of weekly umpire payments.

Goalkeepers & Team Managers are not required to pay fees (for that particular team). Yep, $0!

Process of Payment

After the 5th October deadline for expressions of interest, players will be notified during that week which team they're playing with, and a request for payment will be made.  Players will have seven calendar days to pay their fees via EFT to the MUHC account. If payment is not received or arrangement not made with the This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Further details to be released with team confirmation emails.
