Trials for various hockey Masters teams from over 35s upwards are being held in November.

The Masters 35s, 40s and 45s trials are on Sunday, November 18 at Glasgow’s National Hockey Centre from 10am to 1.30pm.

Any Masters player in these age groups is welcome and this is part of the build-up to the over 35s Home Nations from June 28 to 30 in Glasgow, the over 40s Home Nations in Wales from May 17 to 19 and the over 45s Home Nations in Glasgow from June 28 to 30.
