What a year it has been!
It is very unlikely that we will be returning to hockey this weekend, September 4/5. We are hopeful (but not certain) of returning to play on September 11/12 and being able to finish the season with Grand Finals.
The ladders have been checked and adjusted as necessary to compensate for an uneven number of byes/ matches played by some teams. Check with your club for details.
The Grand Final weekend will include matches for all teams where possible. Unfortunately, because of an uneven number of teams, some teams will miss out.
Umpires for the Grand Finals on September 12 (U12 to Seniors) will be rostered by the GHA Umpires Committee. Umpires for other senior games will be rostered by the GHA Umpires Committee, with the usual rates of payment. Umpires for other junior games will be the responsibility of the teams concerned with the usual rates of payment.
COVID reminders
Please make sure that you and your members follow the GHA COVID Safety Rules. These will be updated as further information is available.
