Scottish Hockey offering Female Athlete Health Webinars

As part of their commitment to improve the Female Athlete Health offering and support, Scottish Hockey  have organised a set of webinars open to the wider hockey community which will be delivered by the sector leading and highly reputable The Well HQ.   These are hosted on zoom and are free to attend. 

The date and topics are below, and Scottish Hockey are happy to share these opportunities as far and wide as possible as they think it could benefit many individuals across sport. So if you or anyone in your club/area/organisation would like to attend these free webinars, let them know - see further information below.

Despite these being “hockey based”, the principles are applicable across all sports including archery as it is less about the sport specific context and more about female health in sport.

All of the webinars start at 7pm and last for 1 hour.
