U21 Men
The U21s target is the European Tournament held every two years. Currently the men are in the Trophy Division, to be contested in 2010 and are aiming for a strong performance that will gain them a promotion to the Championship in 2012.
The programme runs for two years with the priority of the first year being continued technical development while during the second half of the first year an element of tactical development will take place. Many of the players involved in this program are also gaining experience in the Senior Squad during this first year in the cycle.
The focus of the second year is tactical development and game play. Technical development will be maintained, however, it will occur within a tactical framework. The programme allows more fixtures and Championship division opponents are targeted. During this Competition year, the team will also contest the Junior Celtic Cup against Ireland, Scotland and France. The programme finishes off with the European Tournament normally held in July.
Athletes have access to a variety of support staff including coaches, a manager, physiologist, sport psychologist, physiotherapist and central support by the Welsh Hockey Union Performance Section.
