HOW TO REGISTER A TEAM

The following two steps must be followed when registering a summer hockey team:

1. TEAM MANAGER

The Team Manager must click the relevant link below (either Monday & Wednesday  OR Thursday), to register a summer hockey team in PlayHQ and pay the team registration fee. 

MONDAY OR WEDNESDAY​​​​​​​: Team Manager/Captain - To register a TEAM PLEASE CLICK HERE 

THURSDAY: Team Manager/Captain - To register a TEAM PLEASE CLICK HERE ​​​​​​​​​​

2. ONCE THE TEAM MANAGER HAS REGISTERED A TEAM, TEAM MEMBERS CAN REGISTER DIRECTLY TO THAT TEAM

Once the Team Manager has registered a summer hockey team in PlayHQ, they will be emailed a link from PlayHQ. This link can then be forwarded to their team members (players and coach support if applicable) so that they can register directly to their team. Please note team members MUST KNOW their team name in order to register.

E.g. I'm the Team Manager for  Crazy Sticks and want to play in the Monday league. I register "Crazy Sticks" by clicking on the link "Team Manager/Captain - To register a MONDAY OR WEDNESDAY team - PLEASE CLICK HERE". Once registered I'm emailed a link which I send out to all my team members who will be playing in Crazy Sticks, so that they can register directly to "Crazy Sticks".

TEAM REGISTRATIONS CLOSE: MONDAY 9 FEBRUARY 2026
