Fast action, no checking Southwest Ball Hockey has been providing for children from our neighboring communities since 1971 by Boys Field Hockey, Inc. Boys Field Hockey, Inc., is a non-profit, state chartered corporation totally devoted to the enjoyment of this unique brand of ball hockey for children ages 5 to 17.
Our organization is made up entirely of volunteers with elections held for all positions every March. We urge parents and any concerned adult to get involved. We have positions available such as Assistant Coaches, Referees, Fund Raiser Committees, Rules Committees, Rink Maintenance, Team Mother, Grievance Board and Publicity Chairman.The 15-21 game season played outside in tennis shoes, begins in November and ends in April.
Usually, two games are played per week per team. All games are played on weekends and evenings. During the games, each player must lay a minimum of 1/3 of the game. The players all wear helmets with face guards, shin guards, elbow pads and hockey gloves. In addition, their sticks must have a plastic blade. In every division, good sportsmanship is encouraged in all our players. Continuing with this theory, there is also a Grievance Board made up of concerned parents to field complaints or concerns from the parents of our players.
Each division's season ends with the President's Cup Playoffs and the entire program ends with an Awards Banquet made up of all players from each division. |
