JUNIOR REGIONAL PERFORMANCE CENTRES IN THE SOUTH 2009/10

Introduction: This is to inform players, parents, coaches, counties and clubs of the arrangements for Junior

Regional Performance Centres in the South in 2010. Please feel free to circulate this as widely as possible.

2009 JRPCs: The process is now complete and we would like to thank all players, parents, coaches and

administrators for their support. In particular, we would like to thank the three co-ordinators, Lia Waine,

Andy Rogers and Treena Partridge, who put in a huge amount of time to ensure that the process worked

well- and to the many other people who contributed in many ways. The process has been reviewed at both

EH and South level and we hope that the process will work even better in 2010, especially since there has

been a full year's experience nationally on which which to build..

JRPCs in 201o: There will be again 12 centres nationally. The three managed by the South are at Eastleigh,

Tonbridge and Oxford, with one at Northwood, Middlesex, (near Watford) managed by the East. We are

pleased that Andy Rogers has agreed to co-ordinate Tonbridge and Treena Partridge Oxford again. We

shall be advertising shortly for a co-ordinator for Eastleigh as Lia Waine has decided to step down.

Dates: The dates for the sessions at Regional level in 2010 are:

Under 15/16 June 27th July 3rd July 25thh August 23rd and 24th September 4th

Under 17/18 June 26th July 4th July 24th August 25th and 26th September 5th

Tier 1 cluster competition weekends (U15/16/17/18 squads from each JRPC) are September 12th and 26th.

Tier 2 preparation days for Under 16 and Under 18 are Sunday October 10th and 24th.

HIPAC (Under 15 and Under 17) dates are to be confirmed.

Nomination to JRPC 2010: One area which needs to be clarified is that of the process for players to be

nominated to JRPCs. We shall be working out an easier and more efficient process for JAC organisers to

pass on their nominations, recognising that this year's took much more time than necessary. The following

statement has been agreed with EH: 'All players who attend the JRPC should normally return to the
next round of JAC. This includes National Age Group players, unless they are playing regular

National League hockey, though NAGS commitments will take priority. Players will be asked to

contact appropriate JAC organisers. Nominations to JRPCs will normally be through JACs, though

other nominations may, in exceptional circumstances, be accepted in 2010 when supported by

witness statements from suitable adults, such as a school teacher or coach. Any player attending a

JAC and not nominated by the JAC Organisers cannot seek to attend JRPC by another route.'

Any player involved in the JRPC process in 2009 and anyone else who wishes to be considered for JRPC in

2010 who has not been contacted should contact their nearest Junior Academy Centre organiser:
