Fun, Fitness and as a Team we are Competitive

Bellbowrie Hockey Club

Bellbowrie Hockey Club was founded in around 1982 and BHC participated in the Ipswich Hockey Competition as part of Bellbowrie, Rosewood and Bellrose Clubs.  From 1985 Bellbowrie fielded teams in the Brisbane Hockey Association (BHA) and Brisbane Women’s Hockey Association (BWHA), before rejoining IHA again, as Bellbowrie, in 1995.  Read more about our club history, values and goals.

Bellbowrie Hockey Club is a not for profit sporting club which, since its origins in the 1980s, has grown to over 220 members.  In 2010 we fielded 14 teams across junior and senior social, competitive and developmental grades. 

Bellbowrie Hockey Club has a strong junior base and development focus, with 65% of our members under the age of 18 years.  The majority of our members are drawn from the west and southwestern suburbs of Brisbane and north eastern suburbs of Ipswich, including Springfield & Forest Lake in the south, Jindalee & Indooroopilly in the north, and Chapel Hill, Kenmore, Brookfield, Bellbowrie, Anstead, Karana Downs and Mount Crosby in the west..  Our members include individuals and families wanting a challenging or social way to keep fit, meet new friends and have fun as part of a friendly sporting community.

Games are played at the Ipswich Hockey Association (IHA) grounds, 65 Briggs Road Ipswich, from 7pm Friday night through to 5pm Sunday night (Juniors play during daytime hours).  Seniors & U15s generally train on Tuesday nights at the IHA complex (some teams also do fitness training at Bellbowrie).  Juniors (U13 and below) generally train on the grass fields at the Bellbowrie Sports and Recreation Club , Sugarwood Street, Bellbowrie.

Chez Boyle, and a few of our Senior Coaches, have developed a skills development program for 2012, including:

· Seniors & U15s Goal Keeper Training—Four week program to commence Tuesday 14^th February & will continue every 4^th week throughout the season.  Contact Chez Boyle, our Coach Coordinator or your Coach if you’d like further information. 
Some senior players may be needed to help out hitting balls at the keepers (this will count towards your season’s volunteer/fundraising requirements)

· Juniors Goal Keeper Training—Some of BHC’s senior goal keepers will be helping junior goalies out during regularly throughout the season—during training sessions.

· Specialist Skills—strikers, defending, overheads, channeling, block tackle, making space, “carrying” the ball, short corners etc. will be conducted by Coaches during normal training sessions.  Coaches will be planning the sessions and booking the assistance of Neil Shearer (IHA’s Regional Coaching Director).
Some senior players may be needed to help our Coaches of Junior teams teach the specialist skills (this will count towards your season’s volunteer/fundraising requirements)

Here’s a draft outline of BHC’s events calendar for 2012.  Volunteers are
needed to coordinate (and help out as foot soldiers) at the highlighted events. 
Contact Karen Roberts (0438 458 935 or bobnbert@internode.on.net) if you can help (even contacting sponsors or donating prizes etc.).

BHC will continue to use SMS notification to notify club members of major events (such as AGM, sign on day, supporters days, fees due etc).  Please pass the message onto your family & check our website for event details.
