Women's Hockey at YMCC
In 2026 the Club plans to have four Senior turf grade teams and three midweek Masters teams consisting of players from elite level to our former stalwarts, now playing in the Masters teams. There are two women's grass teams that play Saturday afternoons.
We also provide a pathway for our junior girls to get experience playing in out senior teams, exposing talented players to a higher level of competition. This helps our juniors to make the transition to seniors and continue playing hockey.
