Aim
The main aim of the Hockey Program at Westfields Sports is to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for our athletes so that they may improve their individual skills in hockey as well as developing an awareness of belonging to a team. The program provides opportunity for students to develop knowledge, not only in hockey, but in areas which will affect a person's general health and lifestyle.
Courses Offered
Year 7/8 Sport Enrichment is an introduction to the program including practical and theoretical components based on the principles of hockey.
Year 9/10 Applied Sport Studies is an elective subject chosen for study over two years as a component for the Year 10 Record of Student Achievement. In this course there is a greater emphasis on advanced skills and systems. The theoretical component includes units on psychology, nutrition, hockey specific training principles, sport injuries as well as completing video analysis.
Course Structure
All students will be offered two double period sessions per week. Students are expected to attend these sessions and work at home on the skills, knowledge and values taught.
