Juniors

Our Juniors Program has gone from strength to strength to strength in recent years. Juniors officially marks the start of the competition for our junior cygnet swans as they begin year 5. They form part of the Raiders family and start to compete against other clubs as part of the Hockey WA system. We offer teams for all ages and genders with coaching from some of our elite players from the Premier Squads. We also have a tight link to the senior side of the club, with many juniors playing in senior hockey as they get older. All our coaches have working with children checks and have been approved by the club before being appointed.
