- SFHA will work with you to set up the best time
frame to run a clinic. - Most schools will book a
full day, and have teachers sign up their classes
according to class blocks (Minimum of 45 minutes)
assigned for the clinic. - Field Hockey can
target all age groups from K-12 and is based on
what age group the school wants to target . -
Ideally SFHA likes to see each class twice, one
class to introduce the basics and one class to
play a game.
