Overview
Our Denver Site welcomes over 100 middle school players each year looking to improve their skills during the Fall, Winter and Spring Seasons. We have our Interscholastic Middle School Program in the Fall where players without a Middle School Field Hockey Team can join us in competing against St. Mary's, Kent Denver, Colorado Aacdemy, Graland and the Boulder Bears. We also run Middle School Clinics in the Winter & Spring months. Our Clinics always include Playdays, game days where Bears teammates can showcase what they've been learning in practices during games against local competition. For more competitive programs, please consider trying out for one of our Travel Teams.
