AHC Achieves Talent Centre Accreditation!

Today we received the news that we are an official England Hockey Talent Centre! We are one of twenty in the UK and one of only two in Hampshire to achieve accreditation in the first cohort.

This really is a testament to the Club's thriving Junior Section and we send massive congratulations to everyone involved!

The aim of Talent Centre accreditation is to recognise and develop clubs that provide safe, enjoyable and exciting environments for young people, safe challenge and support for talented players and pro-actively prioritises its junior system to optimise the opportunities for further development. 

 All the clubs that have been awarded TC status have undertaken an in-depth talent development programme over the last 12 months and met criteria across a wide range of areas including coaching, talent development provision, athlete wellbeing and governance. 

Quote from Pete Tynan - Alton Talent Centre Lead

"We're delighted to have been granted Talent centre status by England Hockey. It has been a challenging and rewarding experience working with England Hockey and other Talent Centre clubs over the past year to improve what we do at the club. 

"We put individual player development at the heart of what we do. Crucially this doesn't just focus on hockey skills and tactics and physical capabilities, but also developing the whole person with an emphasis on teamship and mental skills. 

"The club has some very exciting plans for players, coaches and parents to maximise the opportunities for players at Alton. We can't wait to begin this incredible opportunity. "
