Volunteers wanted to support teams
The 2018/2019 season has been a great success for the top teams at City of Peterborough Hockey Club, with three promotions and we’re planning now to build upon that.
Director of Hockey, Mike Yeoman, is now looking for more volunteers to help to support these performance teams, as well as the rest of the club for next season, and there are a variety of interesting and exciting roles to be filled.
Do you need a chance to gain experience, maybe gain a qualification, add to your CV, or simply to give something back? Well there might just be something for you below.
All the positions are with City of Peterborough HC, where the Men’s first team have been promoted to the England Hockey National League Division 1, the Men’s second team promoted to the top tier of East Regional Hockey (Prem A) and the Ladies first team being in their East Premier League too, This is certainly top level hockey involvement assured, if that’s what you want.
