Can someone tell me what just happened??
Why is the Premier club league hockey competition pedalling backwards. All modren competitions have finals. What just happened on all three of the women's competitions is competition FARSE. Who were these competitions organizers catering to hockey players or the fans? Does hockey Federation in Jamaica want hockey to be viewed as a competitive sport where fans can come and watch the senior clubs perform or just a sport for hockey players. Had there been a finals, the Federations could have generated some marketing excitment for their fans to come a watch an exciting final game between Tropics and St. Andrew or Tropics and Sharpe's or St. Andrew and Excelsior and so on... This could have generated much need finance I am sure they could use, and pick up some new fans along the way.
Thank goodness the folks who ran this club league were not the ones who ran the schools. Atleast the schools leagues had a final in all divisions. The club league organizers should now take a page out of the schools competion book and use it in their competitions.
All that said and done, Congratulations St. Andrew on a well played season. Tropics next year with the new format maybe we will see you in the finals as I am sure this nonsense will not be carried forward. | | |

i believe for both our teams to continuously get better, we need to continually train right around the year, and not a couple of months before a competition. With that the players could have been mentally, physically and tactically prepared for competitions. Also we need to get some more professionalism in the program, in a sense we need to start placing these players on a regular diet in which they should follow, as well as proper testing should be done before any given player leaves the island to compete for the country.

Hi I'm a new member here I'm 19 yrs old I've played hockey for 6 yrs now,I play left full-back for Oxford and the army in England where they say I'm a great asset because of my fast pace and shooting power when I'm in the D.The reason why I'm on here is because I am part Jamaican and I go there every year to see my grandparents in Manchester and Trewlawny, with my ability I can push the Jamaican males move on to better things and ambition in hockey
