The best and most detailed information on England Hockey's Single System initiative can be obtained from the England Hockey web site. The important message is that our activities are now a part of a much bigger programme of events and activities that align junior hockey in this Country.

The Berkshire Academy and our Development Centres is shown in the illustration as the lower blue (and upper yellow) boxes with the next stage for our better players being an invitation to attend a Regional Junior Performance Centre.
