At Mid Canterbury Hockey, we’re building a community that plays hard and supports harder. That includes standing behind all our umpires — from new to experienced.
They’re out there for the same reason you are: love of the game, so let’s cheer for the game, not challenge the officials.
💬 Speak support.
🙏 Show respect.
🚫 No exceptions.
We’re all part of the same team. Let’s treat each other that way. 🙌
