    Here are some options: (Bleacher Supply Co: $15) (Dicks: $20) (Nike: $20) (Nike:$20) 

  • Black & White socks (they can use soccer socks, but need to go over shin guards)

    • Some field hockey shin guards are sock-like and are reversible. 

  • A reversible Wellesley Youth Field Hockey uniform jersey will be provided.  
    This jersey needs to be returned at the end of the season. There is a $25 fee if the jersey is not returned.

 

* Please note that field hockey sticks are standard, meaning girls use the same stick if they are right-hand or left-hand dominant.

​

Players are required to have a mouthguard and shin guards or they will not be allowed to play due to player safety concerns. 

Please check to make sure your daughter has these things each week. 

 

Field hockey gloves are helpful to protect players' hands from abrasions, stick checks and contact with balls and will help when the colder weather starts. They are not required.
