The Tri-City Eagles has a spring (March to June) Mites & Mini Field Hockey Program for boys and girls aged 5 to 9. Players will learn how to play field hockey on a smaller field with rules focused on teaching kids how to play and most importantly – have fun!
This sport is especially well suited to young soccer players looking to stay active in the off-season, and they will already have most of the gear.
The Under 10 program is open to boys and girls aged 5 to 9. Occasionally, 4-year-olds may also register after discussing with the Club.
- Mites: 5 to 7 years old (born 2017, 2018 and 2019)
- Mini: 8 to 9 years old (born 2015, 2016)
