MAD Hockey Coaching

🎤 Don’t just take our word for it…

These are the voices that matter most. 💛🏑

Our first-ever MAD Skills Camp challenged players, developed their game and, most importantly, gave them an environment where they loved learning.

That’s exactly what we’re trying to build at MAD.

A place where players are encouraged to ask questions, try new things, make mistakes, improve and leave every session better than they arrived.

Thank you to everyone who joined us - we can’t wait to welcome even more players over the summer.

📅 Spaces are still available on selected Summer Skills Camps.

☀️ This could be your child’s summer…

New friends. Big smiles. Great coaching. Loads of hockey. 🏑

At MAD, we’re passionate about creating environments where children can have fun, grow in confidence and develop a love for the game - whether they’re picking up a stick for the first time or looking to take their hockey to the next level.

This summer we’re running:

🌟 MAD Connect Camps – fun, active days full of games, friends and hockey.

🏑 MAD Skills Camps – for players wanting to accelerate their development through game-real coaching.

Spaces are filling fast, so don’t miss out.

3D ball carrying 🏑⬆️

There isn’t just one way to carry the ball in the air. This session was all about exploring different techniques, finding solutions, and building the confidence to use them in game situations.

Give it a go in your next session and let us know which carry works best for you. 👇

🏑🤝 Croeso i Ysgol Glantaf – Ein Partner Cymunedol Gyntaf!
🏑🤝 Welcome to Ysgol Glantaf – Our First Community Partner!

Rydym yn falch iawn o groesawu Ysgol Glantaf fel Partner Cymunedol cyntaf MAD Hockey.

Yn MAD Hockey, rydym yn credu y dylai datblygiad pobl ifanc drwy chwaraeon hefyd gryfhau’r ysgolion a’r clybiau sy’n eu cefnogi.

Drwy ein Rhaglen Partneriaid Cymunedol, bydd pob sesiwn gymwys y bydd disgyblion Ysgol Glantaf yn ei mynychu gyda MAD yn cyfrannu at Gronfa Effaith Gymunedol yr ysgol. Gellir defnyddio’r gronfa hon i gefnogi offer hoci, datblygiad hyfforddwyr a mentrau sy’n cryfhau hoci yn yr ysgol.

Mae’n syniad syml gyda nod mawr: datblygu chwaraewyr, cryfhau cymunedau a thyfu’r gêm gyda’n gilydd.

Diolch yn fawr i Ysgol Glantaf am arwain y ffordd. Edrychwn ymlaen at weld yr effaith y gallwn ei chreu gyda’n gilydd. 💙

We’re delighted to welcome Ysgol Glantaf as the very first MAD Hockey Community Partner!

At MAD Hockey, we believe that when young people develop through sport, the schools and clubs around them should benefit too.

Through our Community Partner Programme, every qualifying MAD session attended by a Glantaf pupil will contribute to the school’s Community Impact Fund, helping to support hockey equipment, coach development and future opportunities.

It’s a simple idea with a big ambition: develop players, strengthen communities and grow the game together.

A huge thank you to Ysgol Glantaf for leading the way. We can’t wait to see the impact we create together. 💙

📢 Are you a school, hockey club or community organisation?

We’d love to welcome more Community Partners from across South Wales.

👉 Tag your school, club or Director of Sport below, or send us a message to find out more.
