2026 Dates Announced - 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 16 March 2026

At the Hockey Big Days Out we welcome all Thames Valley Primary Schools to this fun festival style event.    240 teams, 6 days, 24 umpires, 1600 players.  Every March.

Entry Forms will be sent out to schools in term 1.  This ever popular event fills fast so schools are advised to return entry forms quickly. Entries treated on a first come, first served basis. Thank you to all the schools, players and helpers who support this event.

Thank you to the Hauraki Plains College Umpires - couldn't happen without you. Shout out to Thames Junior Hockey Club and Te Kauwhata Junior Hockey Club for the much needed sustenance from the kitchen and for Ian (Boris) Clark for the draws.  #valleyproud
