theory sessions, coaching, fitness sessions, skills work <strong>and</strong> matches. Coaching <strong>and</strong><br />

umpiring courses will be offered.<br />

The <strong>College</strong> enters a range of league <strong>and</strong> cup competitions <strong>and</strong> they are currently the<br />

British <strong>College</strong> league winners, they were finalists in the British <strong>College</strong>s Cup <strong>and</strong> are<br />

County Champions in the outdoor <strong>and</strong> indoor competitions.<br />

All players coming to <strong>Truro</strong> <strong>College</strong> who want to play hockey but do not want to join the<br />

Academy group will be most welcome to do so.<br />

There is a great depth of talent <strong>and</strong> enthusiasm for hockey in Cornwall. Students of both<br />

genders play in schools <strong>and</strong> clubs, but this talent often goes undeveloped in the shadow<br />

of other major sports. The Academy aims to nurture established players <strong>and</strong> identify<br />

new talent. This initiative provides players with the opportunity of a first class education<br />

coupled with top class hockey coaching.<br />
