Luton Town HC has a junior academy specialist coaching and tournaments for children from
ages 5 to 12 years old. At 13 years old juniors progress into the senior section of the club. Our
training sessions are held on Sundays between September and March (excluding school
holidays) from 10.00 to 11.30am at Luton Sixth Form, Bradgers Hill Rd, Luton LU2 7EW

Please contact the junior manager before attending a session, as the juniors may have a
tournament and not be training. Training may also be located at a different venue (indoors) in
the winter months.

What should you expect as a parent?

The training sessions are mixed gender & ability for all ages. The juniors will all warm up together at the start of a session and then are split into age groups. We have 3 age groups which are based on the age of the child on the 1st of September (U8, U10 and U12), and groups are run by our junior coaches & managers. All groups have a mix of complete beginners and those who played for a season or more. Children can join at any stage.
The club has a selection of sticks to borrow, but we do not provide gum shields or shin pads. These must be provided from home.
Our under 8s are led by Charlotte McKinnon & Mike Beattie. Their sessions are designed to be fun activities and games, while helping them to learn basic hockey skills, as well as covering basic athletic skills. They will also receive game practice for junior tournaments held during the season.
Our under 10s are led by Carter Bright & Bev Siddons. Their sessions will work to enhance the basic skills learnt while in the under 8s as well as advancing their hockey skills & technique, although basic skills are also covered for those who are beginners, and who are welcome to join at any time. They will also have game practice throughout the season to prepare for their junior tournaments.
Our under 12s are led by Matt Dobson & Iain Starkey. This group prepare for progression into the senior section when they become 13 years old, and their sessions cover more advanced hockey skills & techniques, although basic skills are still covered for those who are beginners, and who are welcome to join at any time. They will receive game practice in their sessions against their coaches as well as senior players who attend sessions.
