Supporters Club

The Harewood Supporters operates as an independent group within the Harewood Hockey Club (Inc).

It was formed to provide:

  •       A continued sense of belonging and purpose to those members whose playing days have ended.  Regrettably, in many cases such valued members are not seen regularly until some years later when a son’/daughter, nephew/niece or grandson/daughter commences playing hockey at the Harewood Hockey Club. The desire is to retain our ex-players by providing another team environment with those of common interest and situation.  The club needs the continued support and input from such members and the Harewood Supporters is a vehicle to encourage this.
  •       An opportunity for new members to the Harewood Hockey Club to meet fellow supporters and to feel both welcome and comfortable enjoying the membership of the club and all it offers.
  •       The opportunity to support and encourage Harewood Hockey Club hockey from the junior club through to the senior side.  This can range from an active coaching or managing role, administration through to pure support.
  •       The opportunity to meet with fellow supporters at various hockey orientated functions, held in the facilities our club enjoys, prior to watching a local or provincial game as well as to be informed and entertained by a guest speaker.
  •       The opportunity to continue to contribute to the well-being of the Harewood Hockey Club by sponsoring various projects within the club, to actively seek new players/members and to generally be an ambassador for both the supporters and Harewood Hockey Club.

 

Apart form the camaraderie and enjoyment to be experienced by all supporters who attend the various functions, practical assistance will be given to the Harewood Hockey Club where possible to:

 

  •        Provide scholarships and hardship grants to players.

    Build on the club spirit.

  •  

It is the intention to continue with such projects in consultation with the executive of the Harewood Hockey Club.
