Hockey Victoria and Sports Education Development Australia (SEDA) have partnered up in a bid to develop the game of hockey here in Victoria. Not only will the new program in 2011 generate more participation in the game at a school level it will provide 16-19 year old with an opportunity to have hands on experiences in sport development, achieve VCE and set themselves up ready to launch into a lifetime involvement in sport and sports administration.
Sports Education Development Australia (SEDA) have forged partnerships and successful programs with the AFL, Cricket Victoria and the Football Federation of Victoria. The programs have seen a new look focus on school clinics in the above sports and energy generated into club competition.
Applications for positions in the 2011 program are now open. All current Under 17 players in year 10 interested in knowing more about the program are encouraged to visit SEDA’s website (link below) or call SEDA on (03) 9819 9669.
Operations Manager – Andrew Skillern explained the program would provide Hockey Victoria with an opportunity to build the number of school children exposed to the game in 2011 and will provide clubs with a direct marketing option for generating new members into their clubs.
‘The Football Federation of Victoria have set up a really successful program with SEDA working with the schools. I look forward to key outcomes the program will not only provide Hockey Victoria but the clubs and the individuals participating in the program.
