For over 30 years the OVYL Field Hockey Program has flourished as a recreational league focused on the fundamentals of the game, skill development, teamwork and FUN! Our program is open for girls entering 1st through 6th grade and are divided into 3 age divisions: Lil’ Lynx (1st and 2nd grade); Junior (3rd &4th grade); & Senior (5th & 6th grade).

• Coaches: OVYL coaches are all volunteers.  We are fortunate this season to have MANY Oley Field Hockey alumni as coaches! Coaches are provided skills checklist, practice plans, and links to sport specific information.

• Team Assignment:  Players are evaluated (if possible) and placed on fair/comparable teams.  Teams usually consist of 7-9 players, although team size is dependent upon overall registration numbers. Lil’ Lynx are not evaluated; however, attempt is made to place on comparably skilled teams. Evaluations dates will be determined soon,
• Practices:  Practices will be on Tuesday and Thursday evenings beginning Tuesday, August 12th, 2025 at 6:00 pm.  They will last until approximately 7:30 pm in the beginning of the season, and end earlier as the days get shorter and school begins. 
• Games:  Games will also be held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.  We play mostly intra-league games during the week; occasionally, we will schedule a game(s) with a local youth program. Juniors and Seniors play 6 v 6. Lil' Lynx play 5 v 5.
• Field:  Juniors and Seniors: 30 yd x 60 yd field.  Lil’ Lynx play on a 18 yd  x 32 yd downsized field.
