Scottish Hockey announces new National Primary Festival Sponsor
Scottish Hockey is proud to announce a new partnership

Primary Festival for the next three years. This will allow us to

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.
