Introduction

• The Hockey NT High Performance Advisory Panel
  would like to provide some clear guidelines
  regarding its High Performance Pathway.
• The following document details the different
  levels of competitions, squads, teams that form
  the structure of Hockey NT HP pathway. The
  pathway is available to both genders from all
  affiliated associations.
• The pathway provides direction from junior hockey
  to the National program and should be used as a
  guideline for coaches, parents and athletes.

Interpretation

• Pathway does not include indoor or masters hockey
• Pathway is applicable for both male and females
  from any Hockey NT affiliated association
• The pathway does by no means indicate that all
  teams/ squads/ programs listed are compulsory or
  that athletes must take part in all items of the
  pathway
• Pathway distinguishes between Hockey NT events,
  squads and teams and hockey programs run by other
  sporting bodies and the interaction (if any)
  between the two
