Juniors
Eastern Blades Hockey Club provides opportunities for children of all level of skills and experience to participate in junior hockey. Our junior teams are a vital component of our family-based club which has a strong focus on building friendships and enjoying the sport of hockey. Junior grades are based on a player's year at school and we currently have teams catering for schools years 5-10 as well as younger children in our Hook in 2 Hockey programme.
What category do I select to register my child?
Junior hockey in WA is organised based on school years. Kindy - Year 4 is Hook in2 Hockey or "sub-juniors", and Years 5-12 are classed as "Juniors". We have further split our Hook in 2 Hockey into 3 age groups; Joeys (Kindy and PP); Wallabies (Year 1 and 2) and Kangaroos (Year 3 and 4). If you want your child to play in a higher age group; please email juniors@easternbladeshc.org to confirm how to do this.

Hook in2 Hockey
Our Hook in2 Hockey program is designed to provide basic hockey skills and instil a love of the game in players between the ages of 3 and 9, and provide a pathway into our junior program.
Our program runs for 15 weeks over Terms 2 and 3, on Saturday mornings at Dayton District Open Space in Dayton. Register for 2025 Hook in2 Hockey here.
