At Revolution Field Hockey Camps, our directors make sure to spend time developing the mental and physical side of each player to help them reach the next level the following season and beyond.

Qualities for a Field Hockey Striker

2025-01-07T16:38:25+00:00

Here at Revolution Field Hockey Camps, we realize the importance of developing players at all positions. After all, field hockey is a team sport, and while it’s crucial to have a handful of game-changers that can do damage at any particular time, it won’t be any good if the rest of the team can’t support them. Center fielder Mike Trout is the perfect example of this. His statistics and accomplishments already make him an inner-circle Hall of Famer before his age-28 season. Yet, the Los Angeles Angels have made the playoffs just once since Trout’s first full season (2012). And in [Read More>]

2025-01-07T16:38:35+00:00

For sports that have goalies/goalkeepers like field hockey does, it may be easy for someone not familiar with the sport to think that this is the position to stick a player who may not be as athletic as the rest of their teammates. If you do think that or know someone that does, we’re here to tell you that it couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, there’s an argument to be had for goalkeeper being the most crucial position in field hockey because, well, they’re literally the last line of defense before the ball crosses the line and secures [Read More>]

One of the many cool things about field hockey is there are many similarities with other sports. That means there’s an opportunity to take a skill typically used elsewhere and apply it within a field hockey game successfully. Our Connecticut Field Hockey Camps (along with Revolution Camp locations elsewhere in the country) focus on a number of things to help youth field hockey players take their respective games to the next level. This includes speed and agility training, nutrition seminars, combine testing, personal evaluations, and a take-home drill booklet to keep players motivated.
