U8/JUNIOR CLUB

Registration

Aim offers a U8/Junior Club option for any players born 8/1/17 - 7/31/19 who are interested in combining the League experience with additional training to elevate their game. Athletes play in our K-6 League on Saturdays, plus experience Club-level training one night a week. This allows for a blend of low-key League play with schoolmates and friends, combined with higher-level training in the core fundamentals of field hockey across 9 weeks. Get a taste of our well-known and well-respected Club program. A great hybrid option for the family wanting more than League but not quite the full Club experience!
