Friday – TurfBall

FUN!   Turfball is set to be bigger and better than ever this year. The bar will be open, we will have regular food events and a celebratory theme days too. This is a great way to get together with friends and family in a friendly social environment on a Friday night!

WHAT:   Turfball is like floorball, only we play it on the turf and not indoors. Same rules, sticks, airballs, goals and rink size! This is a unique experience only found at Hale!  You can register as an individual and we find you a team, or you can register for a team. Your choice!

WHEN:   Turfball will be an 7 week program running in Term 4 from Friday 17^th October to Friday 28^th November 2022.

AGE:   We will be running specific competitions by age group in each time slot. Use this as a guide but be prepared for time slots to move around based on the number of registrations by year group

• • 4:15   Year 1/2s
  • 5:00   Year 3/4s
  • 5:45   Year 5/6s
  • 6:30   Year 7/8
  • 7:15   Year 9s Plus (including adults).

Please note, younger age groups often register individually, and we will group into teams for you.

DON’T KNOW HOW TO PLAY? We have you covered!  Umpires in younger age groups will help teach rules and give advice to your young ones so they learn while they play!

EQUIPMENT:   Your fee includes access to all the equipment you will need and an umpire for your game. The plastic balls are hollow and light, you do not need to wear a mouthguard or shinpads – it’s up to you.

REGISTER:   This year you are asked to register as an individual:

• • The cost of registration is $85 per person
  • If you have a team, please write your team name, team manager, shirt colour and fill in the fields provided. While you can have unlimited team members we recommend 6 or 7 per team – there are 5 players on the field during games with unlimited interchange.
  • If you do not have a team, we will put a team together for you or place you into team.

INSURANCE:

• • Turfball is ultra safe, but we need the legals covered.
  • ALL AGES – If you are registered with a HockeyWA club you are already covered for insurance and don’t need to do anything. This also applies to Minkey, 1/2 & 3/4 programs run by any HWA club.
  • If you are not registered with a HockeyWA club you have 2 options.
    • You can either play at your own risk not covered by insuruace.
    • Or you can choose to pay the HockeyAustralia insurance levy for junior members ($56.81). Link here.
