The Mercian Marauders 2024 programme, which provides talented u13s players from across the Midlands the opportunity to represent their region in the UK Lions Tournament for the Mercian Marauders.

Like last year, we are running two boys and two girls teams. The tournaments take place in June (boys) and July (girls) at Nottingham Hockey Centre. Last year we had almost 200 juniors from across the Midlands attend our trials, and we hope to replicate that this year.

This performance programme is open for any talented or aspiring u13s to attend with three trials sessions taking place. This mainly consists of juniors in Year 7 or Year 8, but talented Year 6s are welcome to trial. Squads will be selected from these with a training programme and the tournament to then follow. 

Please find attached the brochure for the 2024 programme, which provides all dates and further information. Please would you be able to share this with relevant players and parents from across Derbyshire. It was great to have a number involved last year and we hope this will be the case again this year.
