Our final ECFH alumni profile and testimonial about what the club can do for local players is from Gini Bramley, current member of the USA Field Hockey Women's National Team. "My experience at EC was very special and this club will always have a great piece of my heart. I joined at the very start of my field hockey career, which meant that Bill and the older girls I played with helped shape my understanding and love for the game. It helped me develop in every single aspect a...s a person, and I would not be the person and player I am today without this club. Being at EC gave me opportunities I couldn’t get anywhere else, including the fact that I got to travel around the globe with my very close friends, making memories that’ll last a lifetime." -Gini, ECFH Alumni, Penn State University, USA Women’s National Team Read about her call up to the USA Women's National Team: https://www.collegian.psu.edu//article_4bfbde5e-879f-11e9- Teamhttps://gopsusports.com/sports/field-hockey/roster/gini-bramley/8235

Another alumni testimonial about ECFH. This one comes from Emma Way, a current member of the USA Field Hockey Women's Development Team and assistant coach at Quinnipiac University. "East Coast Field Hockey & Bill Gaudette have changed my life. Bill has taken me to the most amazing places in the world, introduced me to life-long friends & taught me more than what to do between the white lines on the pitch. Bill has given me the opportunity to compete at a top Division 1 sch...ool, where he continuously followed my career post ECFH. I am forever grateful and could never express my full gratitude." -Emma, ECFH Alumni, University of Michigan Field Hockey, USA Women’s National Development Team Check out her current coaching bio here: https://gobobcats.com//field-/roster/coaches/emma-way/4573 University of Michigan player profile: https://mgoblue.com/spor/field-hockey/roster/emma-way/16970

Reminder that to play ECFH winter indoor hockey, you must have a current USA Field Hockey membership that is "assigned" to East Coast. There are 7 days now remaining in the annual open enrollment period. If you plan to play with us this winter, please take the time today to get this done! #eastcoastfieldhockey #growthegame

Why train with East Coast Field Hockey?? Don't take our word for it...listen to our alumni!! I could never say enough good things about East Coast Field Hockey and Bill Gaudette. The club changed my life for the better and I’m so thankful for all the memories and friends I made through field hockey. Bill made me a better person and a better player and I’m extremely thankful for the opportunities I was given. There was a point in time when I wanted to quit field hockey and Bi...ll told me it would be the worst mistake I ever made; he pushed me to work harder and taught me how to love the game again. I’m glad I listened to him because it led to a Division 1 scholarship at Hofstra University and without that opportunity, I would not be half the person I am today. Thank you Bill Gaudette and ECFH for teaching me more than just field hockey. ECFH forever. -Madi, ECFH Alumni, Hofstra University See more

Registration for our winter indoor season is NOW OPEN-- The season will be 16 weeks in length and occur between mid-November 2020 and early March 2021. The expected number of training sessions and hours per week for each age group are included in the announcement. A formal training calendar will be completed by Coach Bill and later released via TeamApp. Trainings will be in the late afternoons/evenings of all weekdays and on Saturdays at our new training center in Mechanics...burg. Remember that to train/play with East Coast this winter, you MUST be a USA field hockey member and that membership must be assigned to ECFH. Memberships need to be valid through at least 3/1/21. Please secure the USA membership prior to completing the Google Registration form. We expect to play at least 3 tournaments per age group. The older teams may play more based on what is available and what Coach feels is best for each team. Because we have to pay upfront to register for tournaments, we ask that the tournament fees be paid in advance as well. Should the tournaments not proceed because the venue cancels and/or USA field hockey prohibits competition, we will issue refunds for those. We are excited about a great winter indoor season! Please get your registrations done ASAP and please share widely so that we can see some new faces this season!! Registration will close on October 1st.
