Witham Hall Masterclass Day
Coaching led by current and ex GB Internationals & Olympians
Class Hockey is excited to host a Pre-season Masterclass Day at Witham Hall, with four of their most experienced and decorated coaches.
Players will practice and learn the importance of delivering core skills at pace. They will also have the opportunity to master more complex skills, participate in training games, and engage in match play, all under the guidance of four Olympians.
James Albery – Current England and GB International – selected for Paris 2024!
James Gall – Current England and GB International, Toyko Olympics, 2020
Jo Ellis – Former England and GB International, Beijing Olympics, 2008 – 124 England and GB caps
Nick Thompson – Former England and GB International, Atlanta Olympics, 1996 – 196 England and GB caps
James Albery has been selected for the Olympics in Paris this summer, so he may have a medal to show everyone at the end of August! The coaches have also offered to do a Q&A session with pupils and parents at the end of the day; James Gall has a particularly interesting story having fractured his spine and skull in 2015 but battled back to playing again at the top level.
It will be a fantastic opportunity for pupils to prepare themselves for hockey in the Michaelmas/Lent Terms and is very much open to all abilities.
