Registration extended through July 22; basketball registration now open<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The Unionville Recreation Association’s popular field hockey program has extended registration through Sunday, July 22 \u2014 and is open to girls in first through sixth grade, with three age-based levels of play.<\/p>\n

The program is designed for the girls to have fun, get exercise, practice teamwork and develop their hockey abilities.\u00a0 In 2011, URA had over 150 girls involved in the program.<\/p>\n

The season runs from September 4th through October 27th.\u00a0 The girls are divided into divisions based on grade level of Fall 2012:
\n\u2022 First-Second Grades….One hour twice a week with games during those times.
\n\u2022 Third-Fourth Graders….One and a half hours of weeknight practice and Saturday morning games
\n\u2022 Fifth-Sixth Graders…..Two and a half hours of weeknight practice and Saturday morning games.<\/p>\n

The 1-2 and 3-4 divisions play 6 vs. 6 on a half sized field with no goalie.\u00a0 Home games are played at the URA baseball\/softball complex located on Route 82, approx. 1 mile past Unionville Elementary.\u00a0 The 5-6 division plays 11 vs. 11 with goalies on a full sized field, similar to that of the middle and high school teams.\u00a0 Our “home” field is located at Patton Middle School.\u00a0 In previous seasons, we have been able to “travel” to away locations (no further than 30 minutes) and this will be determined at the end of summer.<\/p>\n

League organizers wish to note that practice is a necessary component of learning this sport, developing skills and teamwork and playing hockey safely.\u00a0 Please recognize that a commitment to practice is important and players must develop a level of safety before coaches can give them the opportunity to play in games.<\/p>\n

URA provides t-shirts, balls and goalie equipment for players.\u00a0 Each player must provie their own stick, shinguards, mouthguard and shorts.\u00a0 Both shinguards and mouthguards are mandatory!<\/p>\n

Volunteering is needed.\u00a0 Our program is only as successful as the involvement of volunteers allows us to be!\u00a0 Please consider signing up to help by being a coach, age group commissioner and\/or field commissioner.\u00a0 (We will have a free hockey clinic for those volunteering to coach.)\u00a0 Contact Becky Baccellieri at baccfam@comcast.net<\/a> if you are interested in helping.<\/p>\n

Registration will close July 23.<\/p>\n

Cost: First-Second – $70;\u00a0 Third-Sixth – $10. Please include your child’s grade when registering.<\/p>\n

Registration for URA’s most popular sport \u2014 basketball \u2014 is now open.<\/p>\n

URA Basketball is open to all boys and girls grades K-12.\u00a0 URA Basketball is a recreational program.\u00a0 Everyone makes a team, no one gets cut.<\/p>\n

Season begins in Mid-November, games will start in early December and will end just prior to Spring Break.<\/p>\n

Time commitment is dependent on overall program registrations.\u00a0 Last season, the boys grades 8-12 programs played games on weeknights and all other programs played games primarily on Saturdays.\u00a0 Teams also typically practice 1 night per week.\u00a0 Boys 10-12 grade division plays games only.<\/p>\n

This season, due to space limitations, registrations in each division will be limited.\u00a0 Please register early to reserve your space.<\/p>\n

When registering, please verify the division you are registering for and the school grade effective Fall 2012 for your child is accurate!<\/p>\n
