About Cardinia Storm Hockey Club
Cardinia Storm Hockey Club (CSHC) was established in 2023 by a vibrant group of young women who love sport and share a passion for hockey.
As the first recognised hockey club within the Cardinia Shire, we strive to provide opportunities for everyone within our community to participate in healthy, safe, and inclusive hockey activities in a fun and family oriented environment.
The club is managed by dedicated volunteer staff, all of whom tirelessly provide their skills, time, and assistance to ensure the club can offer a variety of structured programs.
Cardinia Storm Hockey Club is a positive, team-oriented sporting community, inclusive of all ages and abilities.
Although a newly established club, many of our members come with 30+ years of hockey experience, including a premiership flag from the 2022 season.
We have successfully grown to have a women’s unit, men’s unit, and a junior’s unit. Our junior unit consists of Hookin2Hockey Program, U8 Hub Based competition team, U10 Hub Based competition Team, U12 Half Field Competition Team and U14 Mixed SE Competition Team.
We are always welcoming new members into our club – so please contact us and come have a try. Your age and experience do not matter, welcoming beginners and experienced players of all ages.
