ALBION FIELD HOCKEY CENTRAL SPRING REC LEAGUE
Albion's Recreational League is focused on players that want to use field hockey for conditioning, making new friends, or learning a new sport. These recreational teams will focus on individuals skills and using the time to work more one-on-one. Most activities will be associated with increasing an individual's abilities and not so much on playing as a team. A player may use the Recreational League as a stepping stone to transition to the Competitive League.
