Southern United Hockey Club Clinics

SUHC’s present and future success depends on the continuous recruitment and development of our junior boys and girls and young adult and adult players.

We offer a wide range of on and off season skills development programs that designed to cater for all players and abilities including the following:

Southern United Hockey Academy (SUHA)  – Under the direction of former HV High Performance Coordinator and Hockey NZ High Performance Coach Jesse Workman the Hockey Academy will help participants reach their potential through a holistic program that will include learning modern skills, mastering fundamental skills, small games, sports science and other aspects that help create good all around athletes. Juniors are coached by some of the best National and State Athletes and Coaches.

Southern United Development Program (SUDP) – SUDP is every year a huge succes for juniors who have not played in a shield team yet, or have not yet participated in JSC (Junior State Championships), rep hockey for Victoria or School Sport Victoria. It is a holistic 5 week program that helps every participant to develop their own individual hockey skills. It is open to ALL our junior players of all abilities, with players grouped to ensure they are challenged within peer groups of similar age and ability. The program runs for 5 Sunday mornings in Pre-season and represents an incredible opportunity to develop your hockey further. The program is designed for all levels of ability by our Men’s Premier League coach Jesse Workman and is coached by some of the best State Athletes and Coaches at our club.
