This message has been received from Phil Thomas with the dates for the boys JAC assessment days. The Girls have yet to be confirmed.

"Hi All, the coaches have spoken!!

The U16/15 groups will work off the dates outlined below with all players attending the sessions.
As competition approaches the group will be reduced to a competition group.
Rob Leighton (U16) and Tom Smith (U15) are young enthusiastic Lead Coaches with past experience of JAC Coaching/Competition and JRPC preparation, they feel confident that all players will enjoy and benefit from what they have planned.

Development Days
Under 15/16 Boys
Sunday 28th February @ Slazengers Hockey Club - 2 - 5pm
Sunday 7th March @ Slazengers Hockey Club - 2 - 5pm
Sunday 14th March @ Wakefield Hockey Club - 2 - 5pm

The U17 Group are lead by Stuart Harrison and Satnam Khela who are both experienced Coaches, taking teams to National Finals, and Coaching National Leagues Teams, both have
experience with JAC Competition, JRPC perparation and HiPAC organisation and expectations.

Development Days
U17 Boys
Sunday 28th February @ Leeds University (Weetwood) 2 - 5pm
Sunday 7th March as above
Sunday 14th March as above
Sunday 21st March, possible addition

Competition Days:

Sunday 2nd May U15/U16/U17 Boys - North Finals if successful
Sat/Sun 8th/9th May U17 National Finals if North Champions

We are very fortunate to have these Coaches on board plus the Assistant Coaches who are making up the WY Coaching Team.
I hope the players will all enjoy and benefit from the experience and many will go onto bigger and better things.

The current weather situation is leading to rearranged Club League Fixtures, advice from England Hockey is that JAC activity should take priority over Club fixtures so make sure your Club Selectors/Coaches are aware of your JAC commitments.

Finally, if you have not received and completed a JAC Registration Form (ask your coaches for a copy) and complete and take with you to the first Development Session.

Can I ask parents to pay for all sessions in advance by cheque so that Coach do not have to deal with money. Any refunds necessary will be dealt with at the end of the JAC programme.
Cheques made payable to West Yorkshire Hockey Development Group for £22.50

Thank you for your cooperation

Good Luck and success to all.

Cheers
Phil"

Tournament played at Slazenger Hockey Club,  on 6th December 2009

Wakefield B  1-1 Slazenger
Wakefield started strongest, but Slazengers began to dominate.  A scrambled first goal was scored by Wakefield on stroke of half time. Despite early pressure in the 2nd half from Wakefield, Slazengers began to dominate.  Both Robert Fraser and Robin Brearton battled well all afternoon. In the last minute , Jack Kitchen equalised, flicking in to the top right corner. A fair result on the balance of play.

Wakefield A 2-0 Slazengers
Wakefield A were a very strong side but slazengers battled well throughout.   Both wakefield goals were scored in the first half and well taken. Despite being behind slazengers dug deep and  fought to the final whistle. Jack Kitchen cleared twice off the goal line for Slazengers in the second half.  Matt Middleton was resilient in defence striking clearances well. Danny Perry and Jake Barras battled tirelessly up front for slazengers, but were kept at bay by a solid wakefield defence.

Report: Boys U14's

This was the U14 first tournament day of the season.

Slazengers set out with three players short but still turned out with the hope of borrowing players. We did manage to borrow players from both Leeds and Doncaster, thanks to all those lads. We also had three new players Aled, Robert and Adam all of whom have only being playing a matter of weeks, but they held their own and played well.

Slazengers pulled well together with lots of positive encouragement from their Captain Jermane Cockerill in midfield. Slazenger’s only goal of the tournament came from a well worked piece of work by Kayleigh Ventom to leave Alex cook to tap the ball home into the net. Tessa Downs had a great game in goals and Philip Midgley over came a nasty knock on the ankle to complete the last game and again worked well.

Slazenger’s final results for the day were that we won one, lost one, and drew one.
