Outdoor hockey is played on artifical turf and indoor hockey on a gym floor. Outdoor sticks are thicker and heavier, the ball is heavier, and the net is bigger than the indoor versions. A full outdoor game has 11 players on the field for each team and indoor has 6. The games have almost the same rules with minor adjustments for game play. For instance, players can not hit the ball or raise it off the floor in indoor hockey. Indoor hockey is also faster paced with quicker skills.

Regisration for all programs is done through our Membership Portal via "PowerUp Sports". If you are new to the club, you will need to create a profile. If you are registering a child, create a profile for yourself, followed by one for them.

Every player must wear shin guards, a mouth guard and running shoes. Sticks can be purchased through AK Pro and Revamp Sports - there are different sticks for Indoor and Outdoor play.

Payment can be made online via Mastercard/VISA, or e-transfer to treasurer@haltonfieldhockey.com. If you prefer to pay with cash, please email treasurer@haltonfieldhockey.com for payment instructions.
