Natasha O'Flaherty
Junior Academy LeadEmail: [email protected]
When I joined Boots there were only senior teams, within a year of being at the club I took on the task of forming the junior section and I have been actively involved since its inception in 2005. I have the pleasure of over seeing the fantastic junior section for children aged 6 - 14. I have an amazing group of volunteers who help me with various tasks such as admin, membership, coaching and team managers. (However please do get in touch if you would like to help) I pride myself on offering fun and inclusive hockey, ensuring all children have the skills and confidence to continue playing within the senior section of the club.
