Welcome to the 2025 Canberra Regional Program
The Canberra Regional Program is the next step from playing club level and often provides our junior players their first opportunity to play representative hockey. The Regional carnivals fit in between club hockey and State Representative hockey.

| HOCKEY ACT REGIONAL PROGRAM POLICY | a) To preserve the integrity of our aged competitions, players are required to register for and participate in their current age group. b) A player may be invited to register and participate in an age group above at the discretion of the HACT Regional Program Team. If this occurs, additional tournament fees will apply if selected. c) As U14 is the first age group for NSW State Championships, U12 players may nominate for this tournament. Refunds will be provided for any player who nominated for NSW State Championships and is not selected on a team. |
|---|---|
| COST | Individual Carnival/Tournament Fees are indicated on each of the age pages. A once off registration fee of $50 is payable by each player. Please note that this has previously been integrated in carnival fees. This allows flexibility to pay for carnivals individually based on families availability. |
| PAYMENT | Payment for all Canberra Regional Events is to be made at the time of registration. If Hockey ACT does not receive enough registrations to field a team for a specific event by the registration closing date, refunds will be provided to those who completed a registration. Please note that registration deadlines are in place to ensure carnival registration and payment deadlines are able to be met by Hockey ACT. Hockey ACT will continue working to ensure we receive sufficient registrations to provide players with participation opportunities at a variety of Regional Events in 2025. |
