ABOUT THE TEAM
We are the Canadian Junior Men’s National Field Hockey Team and we want you to join our journey! Our team is comprised of ‘Next Gen’ athletes who are 5-8 years away from an Olympic/World Cup podium. We are a part of Field Hockey Canada’s Men’s Next Gen national program. Our players train and compete in their regional training centres located in BC, Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec. It is from this athlete pool that coaches draw for Junior and Youth international competitions. The Next Gen pathway also serves as the development pipeline for the Senior Men’s National Team.
Last year, we placed fourth at the Junior Pan American Championships in August 2021, and earned a place in the Junior World Cup, which took place in Bhubaneswar, India in December 2021. This was an amazing international experience that helped us build our skillset as both individuals and a team.
Our journey now continues as we gear up for the 2022-2023 season…
We would like to invite you to join us on this journey and become a part of our Young Bucks Herd!
