The group is responsible for the coordination and development of hockey within the Dundee Area. A brief overview of the various roles and activities that DHDG undertake are given below. Dundee Primary School Aged Hockey Festivals
The City Wide Hockey Festival will undergo a face lift for the 2005/6 session. New indoor and outdoor facilities will be introduced into the festival calendar making the city- wide festival more accessible to all primary schools within Dundee. The festival structure will be split into two sections: a participation section for teams that are new to hockey and are looking to become involved in hockey and a performance section for teams that are looking for a higher level of competition. The new structure has been devised and approved through extensive consultation with Education, SportTayside and Dundee Hockey Development Group.
