During the field hockey session, the kids will be learning how to properly hold the
hockey stick, how to control the ball with the stick, and how to protect the ball
from a defender. They will also learn how to pass the ball to a teammate, and how
to score a goal! These skills are taught in a fun, engaging, and non-competitive
environment, all while developing important motor skills, learning the importance
of teamwork, trying their best, and never giving up!
Lionheart Character Development:
