Medallists

Marden has always been a thriving, friendly club but 2016 was the year that we put ourselves firmly on the England Hockey map when our U14 Boys won the bronze medal at the National Finals at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Their achievement embodied everything that is great about Marden Russets: apart from the boys’ indisputable talent (the squad includes nine county players), they were able to draw upon the expertise of a coaching team of all ages from Young Leaders to senior players. It was a real club team effort, particularly on Finals Day when the ‘Farmy Army’ supporters turned out in force to cheer on the boys, wearing Marden kit from every generation, their enthusiasm making us the envy of our opposition teams.

England Hockey operates the ‘Single System’ which provides junior coaching and competition to supplement school and club hockey, and offers a route for higher performing players to progress through county to

national level. The entry level is via ‘Junior Development Centres’ (JDCs) which are run by counties and

take place during the Christmas term, typically 11⁄2 hours on a weekday evening. Many

Marden Russets juniors pass the selection trials for JDCs and benefit from these high level coaching sessions.

COMMUNITY ORCHARDMarden’s talented Young Leaders are key members of the coaching team, not just as a welcome pair of hands at training and matches but also as inspirational role models for the younger children. The scheme is a win-win solution for Club and teenagers alike.

Dominic Barber It has been such a rewarding experience. I have learned new skills and overcome challenges such as umpiring my first game.

James Golding I have really enjoyed being a Young Leader and I am keen to pursue sports coaching in the future. I enjoy giving back to the club by passing on the skills they have taught me to the younger generation.

Lucy Jenkins Teaching the youngest age group was such a pleasure, as they progressed from complete

beginners to a really good standard, in just one year! It made me feel proud of them all.

Euan Neale It has been a fantastic opportunity, and it was particularly amazing to see how well the U14 Boys have done - it makes me so proud to see them use the skills we have taught them in a match.

Sophia Rhodes It has been a privilege training with the U11 Girls with Clive as a supportive coach and Amanda too. It is so lovely to see all of the girls progress and I can't wait for September.

Phoebe Sharp Being a Young Leader has helped me with my own game as well as having fun with the U9/10 Girls. It's been great to see their improvement over the weeks and I love doing it!
