Calling all eligible Saints members that may be interested in playing Masters hockey at over 35,40,45,50,55 age groups.

Below is information regarding this year's Masters training sessions and competitions.

Players interested in taking part are urged to attend as many sessions as possible to be considered for selection.

The 2016 Home nations squad will be selected separately to the World Cup at a later date. The days will have a change to the usual format with different age groups attending various different sessions on a rotation so you will be required to attend the full day. Any problems that arise with attendance please consult with the managers.
