New registration system
This year, there is a new registration system being launched by HockeyNZ in conjunction with Canterbury Hockey. This new system will allow players to register and pay subs online (or off line) and will require all players (Junior and Senior) to register in order to be allocated to a team.
PARENTS - please note that you will be required to create an account in the system in YOUR NAME and then register your players - this will allow you to see details of all of your players under your account.
SENIOR registrations will open in March 2023 and more information will be sent out to players as soon as it is available.
JUNIOR registrations will not be open until April-2023 and games will begin in May-2023

JUNIOR UMPIRE MENTORS REQUIRED
Our current Junior Umpire Mentor has decided 2023 will be his last year in the role and is looking for others to help share the workload and take over the role next season.
Junior Umpire Mentors do NOT need to be umpires themselves, they just have to be able to guide and empower Rangiora Hockey Club's awesome young umpires to improve their confidence, knowledge and management skills.
Training can be provided by current mentors and Canterbury Hockey.
If interested please email Tony Kean at drakonian.publishing@gmail.com or contact the Rangiora Hockey Club

ABOUT US...
The Rangiora Hockey Club is one of New Zealand's oldest hockey clubs, and in recent years has become one of Canterbury's fastest growing sports clubs. From just 6 teams in 2010 the Rangiora Hockey Club has grown to boast 26 teams in the 2020 winter season, and with the recent construction of an international quality water-turf and a mini-turf in Rangiora this growth looks set to continue.

senior hockeyThe Rangiora Hockey Club fielded 11 senior hockey teams in the Canterbury competition for 2020, including four Platinum (Youth) teams.
For 2021 we are looking for more players, coaches and managers for all our senior teams. |
junior hockey Junior hockey in Canterbury ranges from the Yr 3/4 Mini Sticks, through the Yr 5/6 Kiwi Sticks to the Yr 7/8 Kwik Sticks 7 and 11 aside grades. The Rangiora Hockey Club fields teams across all these grades, with many of them playing at our Rangiora turfs.
Along with players we are always looking for coaches and managers for all these teams. |

By sharing the workload around we are all able to achieve more which benefits everyone. Please email rangiorahockey@hotmail.com if you are interested in helping the committee in any way. |
UMPIRESAs a growing club we are always looking to foster the development of our umpires across all levels of hockey - and this is only going to become more important as CHA develops its city-based facilities. While we have a strong junior umpire programme, we still need more umpires to assist at our senior grades. If you think you can help out, please use the link below to find out more...
