The Old Silhillians Hockey Club is fully aware of the importance of top quality coaching, and currently employs a wide array of coaches to run its various training sessions, all of which are supported by the various assistant coaches and volunteers within the club. The club is also very active in encouraging the development of all its coaches, and is happy to hear from any aspiring coaches that would like to get involved at the club and/or develop their skills. The club's coaches are also heavily involved in County coaching, with 4 of the current coaching staff also running County squads (ranging from U13s through to the Full Men's County Squad), plus the club is very lucky to be able to call upon Overseas Players/Coaches to support the programme, and also the Head of Coach and Umpire Development in England to oversee the programmes. Within this structure, we are then able to ensure all ability levels in the club receive quality, well structured coaching and training.
