Mentoring Younger Players

For eight sessions from August-October, Tallyho teaches basic skills, rules, elementary game strategy and sportsmanship through fun, age-appropriate drills and organized team play.

On the first day of Tallyho, the entire Collegiate Varsity field hockey team spent part of their practice working with the 3rd-6th Grade players helping to organize, teach skills and give demonstrations. The varsity players serve as role models to the younger players and are amazed at the development of the younger players’ skills.

Tallyho players in 5th and 6th Grade will scrimmage a local club team for their last two sessions and players in 3rd and 4th Grade will have "Olympic" competitions.
