Since the launch of the new HockeyEd programs in April, Hockey Australia has received very positive feedback and overseen encouraging increases in accredited coaches and umpires. Over 750 new coaches / umpires are in the process of completing their Community or Beginner accreditation and 300 have already become accredited.

As you may be aware one of the additional inclusions of the new HockeyEd accreditation structure will be the introduction of a HockeyEd Membership as part of your accreditation. Currently accredited personnel will have the option of purchasing a membership to receive access to a number of exciting membership benefits specific to their level of accreditation.

The HockeyEd Membership will be available for purchase online from January 15th 2008. Membership Benefits can be viewed in the attached flyers.

Any new accreditations, upgrades or renewals will be valid for a period of two years from the 1st October in the year in which it was obtained. Therefore, all current accreditations will be adjusted to the common expiry date of 1st October in the year in which their accreditation is due to expire.

If you did not receive an email with this notice it is likely to be because your contact details are out-of-date on the Hockey Australia accreditation database, please contact us with your current details HockeyEd@hockey.org.au.
