2017 SUMMER LEAGUE HAS CONCLUDED. THANKS FOR PARTICIPATING!

Location: Kent Denver School Deso and/or Horn Field

5:30-7:30pm - Tuesdays, June 13, 20, 27
* July 18, 25

Please be advised that due to construction at Kent Denver School in July, there may be changes to the July sessions.

There will be separate league play at the High School and Middle School levels. Minimum age is entering 6th grade. This is not a beginner league, so players should have some experience with the rules and have fundamental stick skills (beginners should complete at least one instructional camp before attempting league play). The league will have umpires who will be honing their expertise for the upcoming Middle and High School seasons.

Players MUST have proper field hockey gear. Mouth guards and shin guards - no exceptions! Goggles are recommended in preparation for the upcoming school season. As with any DFHC program, players must also

1. Have a current USAFH membership
2. Read and agree to DFHC's Code of Conduct and Waiver forms 

2017 Registration is now CLOSED. THE MIDDLE SCHOOL TEAM IS FULL AND WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING WAIT LIST APPLICANTS.

The DFHC Middle School team competes against other middle school teams in the area during the fall season.

• $245 participation fee (includes team jersey).
• Season runs late August through October.
• Two practices a week at Kent Upper Fields
• 10 or more games throughout the season.
• Two play days in Colorado Springs
• Team competes against local middle schools that have field hockey programs.

Middle School Team Members:

1. Make sure you have a current USAFH membership

Registration will close when the team is full. A waitlist will then be formed.

Equipment Requirements for team members

For practices: footwear appropriate for grass fields, field hockey shin guards (not soccer shin guards – they are too small and will not be permitted by the officials), a mouth guard, and a stick. Goggles are not required until high school and are up to the discretion of players and parents at the middle school level. We recommend players have goggles so that they are accustomed to wearing them when it becomes mandatory in high school.

• For games: The girls will need all of the things listed for practices and will be provided a team reversible jersey (which they can keep) and will need to have a black skort (you can find these at any sporting goods store), a pair of black field hockey socks and a pair of white field hockey socks, without stripes. 

The following is a list of resources for field hockey equipment: Harrow

Sports (located in Denver), Dita Field Hockey (a major field hockey equipment company located in Colorado Springs), and Longstreth Field Hockey.

DFHC Winter League registration is now closed. It will reopen in November.

Middle and a High School leagues play in separate sessions. High school will generally play Saturdays and Middle School will play Sundays. Players will be assigned to game times before the first sessions and will receive an email with their assignments. Leagues will begin the in December. Dates will be listed on the website calendar. Games will be played at Kent Denver in the Upper School Gym.

To familiarize yourself with the equipment and the pace of the indoor game, which is played on a court surface, great footage can be found at http://www.teamusa.org/USA-Field-Hockey/TEAM-USA/US-Indoor/Video

REQUIREMENTS:

• Make sure you have a current USAFH membership here - NO EXCEPTIONS!
• Read DFHC's Code of Conduct and Waiver forms - you will need to agree to these on the Registration below.

EQUIPMENT:

• An Indoor stick is highly recommended but your regular stick will do.  Note that the bottoms of all sticks will need to be taped to prevent damage to the basketball court. 
• Shin Guards (Required)
• Mouth Guard (Required)
• Both right and left hand field hockey gloves are recommended but not required. Indoor FH has your hands on the court often and the pace of play means your hands take a beating! 
• Indoor Field Hockey Shoes if you have them (if not, court shoes)  
• Water Bottle - It is very important to hydrate!

Indoor FH equipment can be found on the Harrow, Dita and Longstreth websites.
