Description/contact info. Expires CAS/PL001 FIELD HOCKEY CANADA Field Hockey Canada (FHC) is a Canadian sport federation responsible, with its Provincial partners, for the development and growth of field hockey in Canada. Hockey - as it is called in most other countries - has the distinction of being the largest team sport played by both men and women in the world. 15,000 competitive and recreational players enjoy the game in Canada, either playing for one of the 400 clubs or for one of the 600 plus school teams right across the country. The sport continues to grow throughout Canada, as it is doing elsewhere in the world. FHC's primary role is in providing top coaching, training and competitive opportunities to prepare the men's and women's national teams to compete against the world's best field hockey nations. FHC is committed to getting Canadian teams into the top eight teams in the world. FHC is also committed to growing the sport by increasing the exposure of Canadians to world class field hockey in Canada. "The essential ingredient needed to support our national teams and event staging is new partnerships with corporations that will bring in additional resources, while creating value for the sponsors".

It is the Ultimate Soccer Camp and family holiday in one. The program is for all ages – male and female - and will focus on putting the fun back into the game. The program will be conducted by international coaches and local team coaches who bring their teams and groups aboard. "Our programs include international matches played at various ports of call worldwide, skills workshops, daily games, techniques and drills, final tournaments and awards presentations. We will also be discussing soccer fitness and nutrition. Games will be played daily. On the final day, tournaments will be held and awards will be given. When we are in port, we have arranged games with the local teams and where there is a beach we will be playing beach soccer tournaments. This requires a different set of skills than conventional soccer and will give the player new skills - not to mention the cultural experience. Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines are state-of-the-art ships with food 24/7. Amenities include pools, water slide, spa, fitness centre, Broadway/Vegas-style shows, nightclubs, live music and entertainment and shopping, as well as kids' camps from toddlers to teens.

E-mail: sophie.taylor@gmail.com. link to website   Ongoing CAS/003 WOMEN'S HOCKEY ASSOCIATION The Women's Hockey Association (WHA) is a new professional league which boasts the best players in the world. The six team WHA is comprised of three Canadian teams - Club de Hockey des Saintes de Montréal Inc., TorontoFlash Women's Hockey Inc. and Amazones Women's Athletic Inc. of Ottawa. American clubs, in the process of being incorporated, are the New York Starlets, the Boston Pandas and Washington Americans. The women's game will differentiate itself with the introduction of a 4 on 4 Hockey Game. "This is an opportunity to rebrand women's hockey with a faster, wide open style better suited to our players. Other changes are also planned to make our games higher scoring than the NHL. With the threatened elimination of Women's Hockey at the Olympics, I am planning for the 4 on 4 Women's World Cup every four years. With the smaller roster size of our teams being fourteen players, European teams will be much more competitive. I can also relax nationality requirements. Quebec and Ontario would have their own teams. The United States would enter North East and North West teams. The best comparison for our league is the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA). League-wide attendance has averaged over 8,000 fans per game over their fourteen-year history. Last year, two of our markets, New York and Washington DC, averaged 11,069 and 9,357 respectively. New York drew a playoff high of 16,682. Their current ABC, ESPN contract is worth $30 million over eight years. In 2010, ratings on ESPN2 were higher than Major League Soccer. The WHA Founding Sponsor drive has just begun. Because most companies have allocated their advertising budgets for this year, our first season can realistically only begin in the fall of 2012. I am however planning on staging exhibition games next winter to generate interest and income. Contact: Nicky Lewis, President. Tel.: 514-457-6647. E-mail: nl@WomensHockeyAssociation.com.
