2023 KWIKSTICKS INTERMEDIATE COMPETITION INFORMATION

​​​​​​​2023 Season Dates: Friday 28 April to Friday 25 August 2023

Games played: Friday 2 June (Queens Birthday weekend) & Friday 30 June (last day of term 2) 

No games: 7 and 14 July (July school holidays)

Location of games: The majority of games are played at our three turfs at Tauranga Hockey Centre, Mt Maunganui. It depends on team entries as to whether games are also played at Tauranga Boys' College or/and Bethlehem College satellite turfs. The draw clearly states which turf your game is on.

If games are played at BC and TGA Boys please ensure you keep to the times on the draw. Umpires need to manage this. If games get behind time, then warmups need to be shortened so time can be caught up and later games start at the correct time.​​​​​​​
