By General Secretary | Posted: Thursday February 18, 2021

We are very excited to invite you to the up and coming Womens Ice Hockey Camp, based on the NZIHF Triple Star Program, that will be held in Dunedin June 5th, 6th and 7th 2021. This invite extends to players born up to and including the year 2009.

What is the Triple Star Program?

Another branch to the World Class Hockey Program we are building. The Triple Star Program (TSP) will include all NZIHF National Teams and provide all players, coaches and staff the ability to further develop and prepare together in NZ for better experiences both domestically and internationally.

Why is it called Triple Star Program?

It’s a link to the national anthem - “Guard Pacific’s TRIPLE STAR”

The Three Stars:

Strengthen NZ Identity – pride in the jersey. Pride in how we play.

Build good Habits/Skills – both on and off the ice. A player/people centric experience that is grounded in wanting to make each individual in attendance better at what they do.

Grow as a Unit – whānau. Everyone pulling in the same direction.

For players – what does this mean?

This will be a great opportunity to get together with fellow female players from throughout NZ.
