Dear Coach or Teacher,

Oxfordshire Hockey Junior Development Centres

I am pleased to invite you to nominate players to the Oxfordshire Hockey Junior Development Centres. The Junior Development Centres (JDCs) aim to give talented young players specialist coaching to help develop their individual skills in a friendly environment and to prepare players before selection for next year's Junior Academy Centres, which have replaced County squads.

For further details of the Single System see

The JDC sessions are for players eligible for the 2010/11 Junior Academy Centres. There will be sessions for the U16 & U17’s boys and girls later in the year.

Players must now meet age criteria based on the calendar year, rather than school years. A table showing birth years and JuniorAcademy years is below.

Birth Year / 1996 / 1997 / 1998/99
JAC Yr 2010/11 / Under 15 / Under 14 / Under 13

Players do not need to live or attend school in Oxfordshire to attend an Oxfordshire Development or Academy Centre.

The sessions run for 6 weeks per age group in Oxford, Banbury, Wallingford and Witney during May and June. There will then be a further 2 sessions in the autumn.

What we would like you to do:

  1. Nominate Players: We need you to nominate players from your club or school who are already playing at county level or who show the potential to develop into players of that standard, taking into account their athleticism, ball skills and experience. To do this, please print and hand out the attached letter to your promising players.
  1. Inform Oxfordshire Hockey: Please also send me a list of which players you have nominated to come to the JDCs. You can do this by completing and returning the enclosed form or emailing

The deadline for applications is 30th April 2010.

Many thanks for supporting hockey in Oxfordshire

Jane Chilvers Oxfordshire Hockey
