Columbia Youth field hockey

Thank you for visiting us!  Here on this site you will find information regarding our youth program as well as high school updates.

About Our Youth Program:

We are a local youth field hockey league that was established in August 2016 and was designated as a 2016 Citi Fundamental Field Hockey Host Site by USA Field Hockey, winning a USA FUNdamental Field Hockey Grant thanks to USA Field Hockey, Citi, and Harrow Sports.

In 2017 we were incredibly lucky to win the contest of a lifetime and scored a free practice session coached by 2016 RIO Field Hockey Olympians Katie Bam, Kelsey Kolojechick, Jill Witmer and Ali Campbell sponsored by STX Field Hockey.

Our mission is to introduce the sport of field hockey to the youth of our area (East Greenbush and surrounding areas) while promoting a fun environment that not only teaches the fundamentals of field hockey, but also promotes sportsmanship and respect for each other (teammates, coaches, officials, spectators, etc) and oneself, and instills confidence in each player and as a team.  We hope that through the program players are encouraged to play for the love of the game, and that it prepares them for their future high school, and even maybe college, field hockey journeys.

Our program is offered to player’s grades 1st-6th.
