Welcome to NSU Youth Grade 2024!!

​​

At NSU, we have a very active youth program based on providing youth hockey competitions for all levels and, importantly, acting as mentors to develop our club’s youth into well-rounded adults. Many of your young adults who have been with the NSU since they were teenagers are actively involved in mentoring and coaching our youth players.


What is 'Youth Grade' at NSU?

The Youth Grade is a fantastic opportunity for boys and girls in Years 7, 8, 9, and 10 to have a taste of 11 aside club hockey and to provide a gateway to senior hockey. The grade welcomes all levels of players and is a great chance for players to learn and enjoy the game in a supportive and nurturing environment.


Key details and dates

  • The Youth Grade is an 11 aside, full-field competition for children in Years 7,8,9 and 10

  • “Senior” (older than 18) players are included in the team (one senior player in the A Grade and 2 senior players in the B and C Grades), and the role of these older players is to encourage, support and teach the players in their team.
