Scottish Hockey announces new National Primary Festival Sponsor

Scottish Hockey is proud to announce a new partnership
with NASUWT, the largest teaching union in the UK, to be title

Scotland, including those as far afield as Shetland, to play in a
fun yet competitive environment.

“We’re delighted that the NASUWT are supporting the National
Primary Festival for the next three years. This will allow us to
fund local authorities in running hockey festivals for primary
schools in their area, as well as contributing to travel costs for
Festival at Peffermill in June.”

The event has been running for the past five years and involves
over 300 children with a range of abilities.
