Waikato Hockey Association

At this stage, Intermediate Hockey and Cambridge Mini Hockey will proceed as scheduled tonight (5 June 2026). We are aware there is a weather watch in place, which was updated at 2:00pm and has remained consistent since this morning.

Please refer to the Thunder and Lightning Policy should conditions deteriorate available on our website: https://waikatohockey.org.nz/resources-policies/

If weather conditions worsen—particularly in the case of heavy rain causing surface flooding—the decision to continue or abandon games should be made by umpires, coaches, and managers on site. If turf monitors are present at your venue, they may also assist with this decision-making.

We are hopeful conditions remain favourable so everyone can safely get back out on turf.

If you need to contact WHA regarding cancellations or any urgent matters, please use the contact below:
