Lockdown Skill Clinics with AKH’s Community Hockey Team of Sandie Mackie and Joe Hanks
Each Monday Joe and Sandie will teach and take you through specific skills to help to improve your game and technique. They will explain, educate and execute varying skills so you can be an even better player once you are back out on the pitch. Joe and Sandie will also be referring you to various hockey links from around the world showing you another spin on training the various skills.
We also encourage everyone at home to take a video of you trying the skill, upload it to Facebook or Instagram and tag Auckland Hockey. So, find a place in your backyard, front yard, garage, driveway and get ready to practise at home and make sure you show us what you’ve got!
