PLAYER SUBSCRIPTIONS

To be reviewed and set by the 2017 management committee at their next meeting.
GENERAL BUSINESS

Junior Player Numbers
o Discussed why numbers have decreased slightly in the primary grades. It seems that the Hockey Coordinator
within the schools is an important factor, if they are not promoting it then the numbers have dropped.

Reporoa Intermediate Team
o Discussed if Reporoa would have a team in the Intermediate competition in 2017. Sara Field reported that due
to decreasing numbers at Reporoa College it could be unlikely.
OUTCOME: Would still like to have Intermediate players as part of our U13 Development programme even if they are
unable to field a team, to ensure they are playing hockey and getting the development and game time required

U11 Programme
o Discussed trialling this during the 1st term rather than at the end of the hockey season. It could provide
valuable opportunity to engage players before the start of the season and assist in upskilling players prior to
the season starting

Portfolios
o Management committee will decide roles and portfolios at their next meeting.

Turf Replacement
o Are awaiting two funding application outcomes to increase funds for Turf replacement. Funding priorities are
for this project until it is completed
o For any shortfall, TDC will be approached to see if they can assist fund this

Communication and Relationship Strengths
o GLTHA is working well to improve relationships with schools, with TKKM o Whakarewa being a prime example,
working alongside each other both at local level as well as representative, which is assisting the development
of all local players

Hockey Development Manager Role
o Due to Anieks resignation, we will need to advertise for someone to fulfil this role come 2017
o BOPHA have a new CoachForce Officer starting December 2016, working for Rotorua, Taupo and Whakatane
so this will impact this role, as we expect to get more assistance from the BOPHA Officer.
o Restructure of the role will be discussed at the next meeting
