I am Team GB in Glasgow
Scottish Hockey has organised a free hockey event as part of the nation’s biggest sports day, I Am Team GB.
Scottish Hockey with clubs representing Scotland’s 4 hockey regions will host a day of hockey for all ages and abilities on Saturday 27 August to get more people active in the local community and celebrate Team GB’s achievements at the Rio 2016 Games.
The event is part of I Am Team GB – a nationwide campaign that has inspired thousands of UK clubs to open their doors to new participants. This campaign is brought to you by ITV and The National Lottery, working with the British Olympic Association, UK Sport and supported by Join In, to inspire the Great British public to take part in sport.
What’s more, many of the nation’s Olympians, fresh from the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, will be attending events across the nation to give people the opportunity to stand shoulder to shoulder with Team GB.
Scottish Hockey is proud to fly the I Am Team GB flag in the Glasgow area. The iconic Glasgow National Hockey Centre will be offering you exclusive access to be part of I Am Team GB. Giving you access to an internationally renowned sports centre with top class facilities we want to invite you, your family and your friends to join us!
Not only will you have the opportunity to play and have a go on the incredible commonwealth legacy pitch, but you could also catch sight of the National Team in their final stages of training for the Men’s World League in September. Sessions will be split into 3 areas, with youth (6 – 14 yrs), adult (14-40) and masters (40+).
No matter how old or young, experienced or beginner, Glasgow National Hockey Centre is opening its doors to you, your family and your friends to come and have a day of hockey and fun on 27 August.
“We are so pleased to put on this great event and be part of I Am Team GB,” said Scottish Hockey’s CEO, David Sweetman. “Sport brings communities closer together and we are immensely proud at [club name] to be part of this nationwide celebration of sport.”
