The Hawthorn Hockey Club uses Team App for official club and section messages, fixtures and selection information.
Please make sure that you have “checked” the correct Access Groups so you are opted in for the correct updates.
Likewise, leave any Access Groups that you are no longer associated with to minimise the number of Team App notifications you receive.
Please download TeamApp, search for Hawthorn Hockey Club and request access.
Note: Some groups, teams may use WhatsApp, however these messages are not club messages and are not archived by the club.
Our club, like all clubs, relies on many volunteers to operate. This includes the President – Junior Section, Age level co-ordinators, Team managers, Coaches, Hookin2Hockey co-ordinators, Indoor co-ordinators etc, right down to people to volunteer to run the BBQ when it is Hawthorn’s turn.
We NEED help to run your child’s team efficiently, so contact myself or your age coordinator to find out how you can help. It does not take much effort and is a great way to support your kids.
