Uppingham Summer School - Hockey


Uppingham School offers a number of summer courses ranging from music to creative arts and drama. However, it is the sports week the school offers that has become the flagship summer course for little tykes looking to start their future England careers. Exciting and competitive games and activities are used to capture the imagination and encourage skill acquisition and decision-making. The programme will involve a wide range of sports including hockey, rugby, football, netball, athletics and many more.

Our popular hockey coaching courses are aimed at boys and girls aged 8-14. Led by a highly qualified team of coaches, the course is appropriate for beginners, right through to county standard players since participants are split by age and ability. It is therefore ideal for those who want to learn more about the sport, or who wish to refine their skills for the season. The focus of the camps will be the development of core skills including passing, ball carrying, elimination skills and defensive skills through fun, exciting practices and gameplay. Specialist goalie training will also be available. There will also be the opportunity for competitive gameplay to improve decision-making skills and game awareness and understanding. Hockey sticks can be supplied if required, although we ask players to bring their own gum shields and shin pads.
