Skater Hockey Scholarships - Play with OXFORD for FREE!!
The club is now offering scholarships to those who would genuinely love to play Skater hockey, but just cannot afford it.
This is aimed at younger, promising and enthusiastic players who would otherwise not be able to afford to play roller hockey.
The scholarship covers the monthly club fees ie regular training and regional matches.
BISHA,and SASH fees are not included.
Regionals, Nationals, and other tournament fees are not included.It would suit those who have tried skater hockey at street sports sessions, but couldnt afford to continue.
The scholarships are limited to 4 players per season and must go to the most deserving players, with priority to younger players.
If you win the scholarship, you must show at all times that you deserve to have it. If not, it will be given to someone else. So, if you realy want to get into hockey, this is a great opportunity.
E-mail me at richard@oxskate.com and I'll get details to you.

Thursday 13th of December was Club AGM
All the committee got the sack - and in a most undignified scramble, fought tooth and claw to regain their positions.
When the dust settled....
Bales is still Chairman
The Secretary seat remained empty
The treasurer is Elsie ably assisted by Brian.
Publicity is Richard.
Sponsorship. There was quite a contest for sponsorship. It was felt that as its such an important job, all those willing to contribute should be able to. So, Paul is 'commercial' sponsorship, Karen Willis is 'public' sponsorship. Will is older age group fundraising and Mandy and Kieran are Younger age group fund raising. So we should be getting in LOADS of money next season!
Development is Dave Edwards.
Older players Rep. Michael Coombs
Younger players Rep - Dawn
So - Any Volunteers for Club Secretary then? |
Saturday 8th of December was presentations night.
Followed by the Manley Cup. All Age groups competed for the coveted prize. |

Scholarships available For Oxford City Stars Ice Hockey Club.
Oxford Stars Ice Hockey Club (in association with the KOTS charity - Kids off the street) are offering scholarships to promising and enthusiastic players who would otherwise not be able to afford to play Ice hockey. The scholarship covers training fees ND match fees if the player is selected to play in matches.
It would ideally suit Oxford Blues players who currently don't play Ice. If the only reason that you cant play ice is the cost , then now you can play for free!
The scholarships are limited to 5 players per season and must go to the most deserving players, with priority to younger players. If you win the scholarship, you must show at all times that you deserve to have it. If not, it will be given to someone else.
So, if you're serious about hockey, this is a great opportunity.
Application forms are available from the ice rink on Wednesday training evenings or e-mail me at richard@oxskate.com and I'll get details to you.
