Welcoming and Inclusive Environment
Essendon Hockey is dedicated to creating a vibrant and inclusive environment for women’s hockey. We welcome players of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced athletes, and are committed to fostering a supportive community where everyone can thrive.
Focus on Player Growth
Our focus is on player growth, with programs designed to develop skills and build confidence at every stage of a player’s journey with Essendon Hockey. We believe in nurturing talent and providing opportunities for continuous improvement.
Premier League Player Involvement
A key aspect of our approach is the active involvement of our Premier League players and goalkeepers, who dedicate their time to mentoring and coaching younger players. This provides invaluable learning opportunities, offering insights from the highest level of our club and helping to create strong bonds within our hockey community.
Our Premier League Success
Essendon Hockey’s commitment to excellence is evident in the recent achievements of our Premier League team. We are incredibly proud to have reached the Premier League Grand Final for three consecutive years: 2022, 2023, and 2024. This consistent performance at the highest level demonstrates the strength and depth of our playing group and the dedication of our coaching staff. The culmination of this sustained effort came in 2022, where we triumphed and secured the Premier League Premiership. This victory is a testament to the hard work, resilience, and unwavering team spirit that defines Essendon Hockey. Making the Grand Final year after year showcases the enduring strength and consistent high performance that our club embodies.
Transition Pathways for Development
We also recognise the importance of clear transition pathways, ensuring that players have a structured route to progress and reach their full potential. Whether a player aspires to compete at the highest level or simply enjoys the game for life, Essendon Hockey provides the support and guidance needed to achieve their goals.
