Minkey 2024 ❤🐺🏑

Minkey (Kindy to Yr 4) is an original Hockey Australia initiative driven by Westside Wolves and supported by Hockey Australia and Hockey WA. Minkey was developed to introduce children to a modified version of full field Hockey. The smaller fields and mixed teams allow players to develop good hockey and team skills prior to playing full field hockey in Year 5. Westside Wolves Minkey is held on Saturday mornings at College Park, Princess Road Claremont.

The Westside Wolves Minkey program at College Park is thought to be the largest in Australia with over 20 local schools delivering 50 plus teams and has been running for nearly 30 years.

Developing good spirit of the game is paramount and therefore there is no ladder or scoring. It is essential that players parents and coaches remember that this may be the first time for many children in a team sport and so it needs to be a positive experience.

We are looking forward to welcoming back all of our Minkey Maestros from last season and introducing our fine game to some new comers.
