Update on Field Hockey for Fall 2023
As many may know, Kathy Gulbish has retired after many years with the
program.
For the Fall of 2023, Greg Aroneo has agreed to take over as coach for
the program, and Mead Briggs will be helping him.
Centercourt Field Hockey will be providing the training. Please click
HERE to view the bios for the
Centercourt Training Staff.
We will have a grades 5/6 team and a 7/8 team with the Mid NJ Youth
Field Hockey League.
Open to residents in Long Hill, Warren, Watchung, and Green Brook,
grades 5-8 for Fall 2023.
Registration for the program is open until 8/25.
Game Season runs 9/10 - early Nov.
5/6 team does not have play-offs, but the 7/8 team will in Nov.
Teams will have a target cap of 22 players each. Register early.
Wait lists will be established if necessary. If there is enough interest to add a
second team at either/both levels, we will attempt to.
Registration fee is $165 for the season plus the cost of the uniform
if you need one.
Training for all teams as follows:
Mondays and Thursdays, 6pm - 8pm beginning 8/28
Games will start September 10th--mostly on Sundays. Rarely, an away
team might request an alternate day to make up a game.
Home Games: Kantor Park Turf, Sunday afternoons, 12-5pm
Away Games: Currently the following towns are participating:
Branchburg, Bridgewater, Chatham, Clark, Cranford, Glen Ridge, Hillsborough,
Maplewood/So. Orange, Metuchen, Morristown/Morris Plains, No. Hunterdon, Scotch
Plains/Fanwood, Berkeley Heights, Madison, Westfield, Basking Ridge.
Please note--this is tentative. Game times and locations will be
verified each week.
*Parents provide own transportation.
Equipment Needed: Mouth Guards, Cleats/sneakers, shin guards, Field
Hockey Goggles, Field Hockey Stick (note: a SMALL number of loaner sticks are available
on a first come; first-served basis).
Uniforms Required
(We are using the same uniforms, so if you have one from last year,
and it still fits--please use that one).
Goalie Equipment is provided and is to be kept in field storage room.
All UNIFORM components are available on Community Pass.
Uniforms MUST be ordered by 8/30.
If you have a uniform from a prior year and it still fits, you can
wear that. This year's uniform will be very similar. We are going to start
lettering future uniforms with "Watchung Hills Field Hockey" instead of
"Long Hill Field Hockey". As you will learn, in Field Hockey, it's all
about the socks (white for HOME games, and black for AWAY). The Watchung Hills Field
Hockey lettering on the uniforms will look very similar to the Long Hill lettering, and
it probably won't be that noticeable.
