Year Round Clubs: Since 2005, the Aim Field Hockey Club program has offered athletes the opportunity to train consistently within a fun yet competitive team atmosphere. These high-level teams consist of dedicated athletes from many different schools in the St. Louis area. Aim runs Club teams at the U19, U16, U14, U12 and U10 age groups. Each team trains throughout the winter and spring (and in the fall for middle school and younger) and attends regional and national tournaments to compete with other club teams across the country. We attend the following tournaments: Regional Club Championship, National Club Championship, National Field Hockey Festival, Disney Showcase, National Indoor Qualifying Tournament, National Indoor Tournament, and many other local tournaments in the Midwest. Click here for more information.
Year Round Leagues: Our Fall, Winter and Spring Leagues are a great way to learn the sport of field hockey, play with school teammates and friends, and take your game to the next level. Each week, teams meet for one hour. In that hour, there is approximately 20 minutes of instruction and 40 minutes of game play. Each team will be assigned an experienced coach, and having fun is one of the primary goals. Click here for more information.
Little Divots: Little Divots is a fun introductory field hockey program for 3-7 year old girls and boys offered in both the Fall and Spring. This is a low-key way to introduce your child to the joy of playing field hockey. Our coaches focus on teaching the basics in an age-appropriate manner and building a solid foundation for growth in youth sports. Click here for more information.
Summer Prep Camps: Our Summer Camps include a Junior Prep Camp for 1st-8th graders and a High School Preseason Prep Camp for 9th-12th graders. Our 2020 Summer Prep Camps will take place on July 20-July 23. Two college coaches serve as clinicians the first two days of camp. Click here for more information.
