Lightning Youth Field Hockey has two main seasons: Fall (Aug-Dec) and Spring (Jan-May), and we offer age-based teams. Each season has a mix of Practices and Tournaments/Clinics.
PRACTICE.
When: SUNDAY mornings
Location: Foothill College
Our Sunday practices are a mix of warm-up/fitness drills, individual skill work, and scrimmages. We have an expectation that our players attend a minimum of 80% of our practices to be eligible to play in tournaments.
TOURNAMENTS and CLINICS.
Tournaments and Clinics are optional and their fees are included in the registration. They are opportunities for our players to learn the game, playing with and against other youth clubs. Most of our tournaments are local, as far north as San Francisco, east to UC Davis, and south to Gilroy.
Tournaments are optional - they are opportunities to us to play against other youth clubs. For tournaments, the Club asks players' parents to mark their attendance so that the Coaches can develop a line-up for the game(s).
All players are required to be members of the United States Field Hockey Association/USAFH to participate in Lightning practices and tournaments. The annual membership must be purchased directly from the USFHA.
No need to declare or switch Club Affiliation. If you do not know if you would prefer to declare your Club Affiliation, or if you are already assigned to a different Club, you do not need to declare or change to Lightning in order to join our Fall Season.
