Who’s coaching

ONE Hockey has been an England Hockey Official Coaching Agency since 2014 and has run holiday camps since 2011, with more than 10,000 players through them. Every camp has outfield and goalkeeper specialist coaches.

Getting there

Baldersby Park is just off the A1(M) and A168, about 10 minutes from Thirsk and 15 from Ripon. Parking details will follow with your booking confirmation.

Questions parents ask

Do they need to be a club player? No. Most players at our camps play for a school or a club, but plenty come having only played in PE, and some have never played.

Is it on grass or astro? The all-weather pitch, so it runs whatever the February weather does. Bring a coat for breaks.

What if we have to cancel? Full refund 21 days or more before the camp, 50% between 2 and 21 days, none inside 48 hours. See our booking terms.

Also in Yorkshire this half term: Hockey Camp Leeds and Hockey Camp Doncaster. See all camp dates.
