HOW TO JOIN OUR CLUB

Join our mailing list: Google Group: NYC Field Hockey

Please be sure to answer the question prompts so we know you’re not a bot!

We use the Google Group mailing list to send club announcements, session registration emails, and more. Our dedicated volunteer Club Managers handle all administrative details for the season as well as for each individual session.

SAFETY REMINDER: 
NYCFH is for adults who have played field hockey in some organized capacity before (school, club, league, etc.) Previous experience and knowledge of the game are required for us to promote safe play (for yourself and others) and make the most of our playing sessions.

Pricing & session fees

NYCFH is a not-for-profit organization and all Club Managers are volunteers. The first session you attend with us in a calendar year will cost $20, payable on the day of play. After your first session, each session you attend will cost $10, payable on the day of play. All money we receive goes back into the club to help us cover the costs of our yearly insurance premium, seasonal field permits, permit application fees, and supplies (med kit, cones, goals, etc.), and help us make hockey more affordable for everyone.

NOTE: Fee structure is subject to change year-to-year to accommodate the needs of the club.

How to pay

Members pay the Club Treasurer via Venmo, Paypal, or Zelle when they attend each session. All payment information will be included in each session registration email.

Note: We recommend waiting to pay until you are confirmed for a session. We prioritize digital payment, but exceptions will be made on a case-by-case basis.

Weekly sessions

Registration for each session opens at 10am EST on the Wednesday before the session! We recommend setting a weekly reminder to check your email as spots can go fast.

Miss the cut? We have a weekly waitlist. When a session is full, we will email the group with a link to our waitlist request form.

What to bring to each session

Bring your field hockey stick, sneakers or cleats/turf shoes (we recommend cleats/turf shoes as the turf can be slippery), shin guards (optional), mouthguard (highly recommended), sunscreen (seasonal), and water. For insurance purposes, all members are required to sign a waiver before their first session.

If you need to borrow a stick, the managers have a limited number of extra sticks available. There is a check box on the weekly session registration form where you can request to borrow a stick and we will do our best to accommodate your request. 

Cancellation policy

If you sign up for a session and are unable to attend, please notify the NYCFH Managers ASAP so they can promote players from the waitlist.

NOTE: If you cancel after 5pm EST on Saturday, you will be asked to pay a $10 cancelation fee. Late cancellations after this deadline make it harder for us to promote members from the waitlist for Sunday, as many people have made alternative plans by then.

Where to join us

The summer season takes place on the rooftop turf at Pier 40 in Manhattan at W Houston Street & the West Side Highway.

In the fall, we play at Gansevoort Peninsula in Manhattan at the West Side Highway between Gansevoort Street & Little W 12th Street.
