Winter 2025
Every winter Rocky plays indoor field hockey. Indoor field hockey moves much quicker than outdoor field hockey as it's played on a court. Playing indoor field hockey helps develop individual skills such as eliminations, trapping the ball, and operating in a small space. It also helps teams learn how to play together as a unit. Don't worry if you've never played indoor field hockey before, we're excited to teach you!
Details
At Rocky, we aim to have a great coach-to-player ratio to ensure every athlete feels seen and gets individualized coaching. As we continue to grow, we see the need to have two practice groups to make sure our athletes are learning the right skills and are challenged without being frustrated.
- High School - Twice Weekly ($500+ recommended gear)
- Our U16 program is open to all athletes from middle school to sophomore year of high school. It is focused on fundamental skill development and building field hockey IQ.
- Our U19 program is open to all juniors, seniors, and select other athletes (by invitation). This group is meant to challenge Rocky athletes with high-intensity play and game strategy.
- Middle School (New in 2025!) - Saturdays ($250+ recommended gear)
- We are super excited to debut indoor field hockey for our middle school group! We'll be practicing once weekly on Saturdays at Kent Denver School from 4:00-5:30.
