Dunedin Weekly SS Competition

This is organised by the Otago Hockey Association. Entry forms containing information are sent out in March. The draw for most grades is completed a number of weeks in advance so it is important that requests concerning unavailability and particular times to play are received before the draw is started. Consideration has to be given to teams, like South Otago High, who travel each week to play.

The Otago Hockey Umpires Assn normally tries and supplies as many umpires for games as possible, with schools providing a few umpires for the lower grades. 

Playing Times

Tuesday - Boys Premier, Division 2 and Division 3 are to be played between 4pm and 9pm.

Competition Format

Depending on entries, hopefully 2 rounds with semis and finals at end of season.
