Premier League Coaching in 2024

December 12th, 2023

The Altona Hockey Club board is delighted to announce that our 2024 Women’s Premier League Coach will be Danielle Schubach, assisted by Stephanie Young, and our 2024 Men’s Premier League Coach is Greg Drake.

2023 Altona Hockey Club Annual Report

It is fantastic to have Greg returning to Premier League coaching, Many of you will already know Greg well, but for those who do not, a sample of his CV below speaks for itself, and we can’t wait to see what he can achieve with the Men’s Squad.

Greg played 250 State League 1 (PL) games for Altona, playing a key role in our two Premierships and was a Victorian senior side squad member. He has coached our MPL side before, over 10 years ago, and more recently the WPL side. In the time since last coaching MPL, he has coached the Victorian U21s, has won the Australian Hockey League (the predecessor to Hockey One) as a coach of the Victorian Vipers, before moving to coach International hockey as assistant for the Canadian Women, Japan Women, and USA women before also taking over as head coach for Pro-League of the USA Women – and of course taking out the 2023 Women’s Pennant D Premiership as coach.

He will also continue in his role of AHC Club Coach Developer, helping to develop and support our club coaches.

Greg will be supported by Ian Bartlett who is stepping into the Reserves coaching role. Ian is the Premier League games record holder at Altona with 336 games and will bring a wealth of hockey knowledge to the squad.

2023 Altona Hockey Club Annual Report

Danielle and Steph had a great first year coaching the women, finishing the season just outside of finals in 9th place, a marked improvement on the 2022 season result in a highly competitive year. The feedback from the players was overwhelmingly positive and spoke volumes to the work and expertise that Danni and Steph bring to the squad.

The Altona Hockey Club Uniform

The new playing uniform has arrived!

The Altona Hockey Club playing uniform – modelled here by Premier League captains Bronte Kerley & Andrew Scanlon – is designed to be a modern, inclusive uniform for the whole club. The traditional Royal Blue and Gold of the AHC are prominent in the design, with additional features touching on our heritage.

The uniform features the same design across all Men’s & Women’s pieces, meaning that it can be worn interchangeably at the preference of the player.

Thank you all for your patience, it is now available for everyone who pre-ordered, the uniform shop will be open Thursday from 5.30pm – 8pm. Following the Women’s Premier League shirt presentation last week, the Men’s Premier League squad will be holding a shirt presentation on Thursday evening.

Our Premier League sides will be in the new uniform from this weekend, featuring our Premier Partner Werribee Steel, while the rest of the club has the option to wear either kit until the 2025 season.

Thank you to everyone who helped celebrate our Inaugural Indigenous Round this past weekend.

Thank you to Mark Brown from the Bunurong Land Council for the powerful Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony, Aunty Maggie and Manny from the local Balit Gulyna group, and some of our own club members with Indigenous heritage, Barry Briggs, Shaz Briggs and Naish McDonald, who shared in the Yarning Circle, painted artwork and also led Acknowledgement of Country and Medal Presentations.

Altona Hockey Club Women's Premier League

Thank you to everyone who helped celebrate our Inaugural Indigenous Round this past weekend.
Thank you to Mark Brown from the Bunurong Land Council for the powerful Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony, Aunty Maggie and Manny from the local Balit Gulyna group, and some of our own club members with Indigenous heritage, Barry Briggs, Shaz Briggs and Naish McDonald, who shared in the Yarning Circle, painted artwork and also led Acknowledgement of Country and Medal Presentations.

Our Premier League Squads all wore the Indigenous playing tops, with Hawthorn HC joining in an acknowledgement of country before each game, and medal ceremony post-game.

On the pitch, our Premier League men overcame a half-time deficit to win 5-1 thanks to four goals from Cooper Burns and one from Connar Otterbach, while Hawthorn HC were too good in WPL, running away in the last quarter to take the game 0-7.

Thank you to the generous donations of members, and the support of Hobsons Bay City Council, as well as the contribution of the Social & Inclusion committee and all of the playing groups for making the day possible.

We hope you enjoyed the day, and the start of our journey as a club to celebrating and recognising the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Introducing…our New Playing Uniform

Introducing…our New Playing Uniform

Introducing…the New AHC Playing Uniform

March 16, 2023

2022 Hookin2Hockey Come & Try Hockey

INTRODUCING…The new Altona Hockey Club Playing Uniform. 

Here for the 2023 season, a lot of work has gone into this new kit that will be available for the whole club.

Apart from a brand new design, the biggest change is a move to give players more options in the uniform that you wear. All pieces feature the same design so any cut or piece can be worn by any player, and on the women’s side players now have the choice of Singlet or Short Sleeve Shirt as their playing top. The idea is to eventually offer Men’s Singlets and Women’s shorts as well, there is an expression of interest below for anyone who would like this items. 

There is also two colours of Unisex training tops available, these match the Women’s Round and Men’s Round that we regular celebrate during the season, and in addition the Pride Cup tops will also be available to order shortly – these are all optional items for training or warming up.There is no change to the socks.

The uniform is available now for pre-order via our Online Shop, the Hoody and Pants that were introduced last year are also available.

For all Premier League players, because it is an expectation that you wear the uniform, you can also contact Kerrie and organise your order and pay on arrival, for all other players the uniform is optional. There will be one other chance in the middle of the season to order. 

Samples of all items and sizes are available to try on at the club uniform shop. We still have stock of the previous uniform available at the uniform shop that will be available at a heavily discounted rate.

Pre-Order: By Friday 24th of March, 2023 at the latest.

To view and order: https://shop.altonahc.org.au/product-category/apparel/

Expectation of Players: Premier League squads to all be playing in the new uniform in 2023. For all other players it is purely optional up until the 2025 season. We will be having both uniforms on pitch in the transition period for all sides apart from Premier League.

Try On Times:

  • Thursday 16th March – 5pm – 8.30pm
  • Tuesday 21st March – 6pm – 8pm
  • Thursday 23rd March – 6pm – 8pm

Women’s Premier League Coaching Announcement for 2023

Women’s Premier League Coaching Announcement for 2023

Women’s Premier League Coaching Announcement for 2023 Season

9th of December, 2022

MailPlus Logo

We are thrilled to announce that for the 2023 season our Women’s Premier League side will be coached by Danielle Schubach with Stephanie Young as Assistant Coach.

A huge thank you to Ben Newell for leading the side for the past four seasons, and coming straight out of the men’s program prior to that. Newelly has been involved or directly coached one of our Premier League sides for almost all of the last decade, a tireless and incredible effort, and is taking a well-deserved break.

Both Dan and Steph’s hockey resume speaks for itself. At the time of her retirement, Steph was the Women’s Premier League games record holder at Altona with 203 games, and is still the leading goalscorer with 104 goals, at an incredible average of a goal better than 1 every 2 games.

Dan surpassed Steph as the current games record holder – many of those games played together – and also has one of the most impressive hockey resumes in Victoria. As a sample of some of her on-field achievements, she was selected in the midfield in the Victorian Vipers All-Star team over their 26 year history, captained the Vipers to win the Australia Hockey League (the pre-cursor to Hockey One) in 2012, was part of the 2017 winning team, as well as represented the Hockeyroos on multiple tours between 2009 and 2013.

The WPL squad has already started their pre-season with optional training sessions Weds nights and are holding a compulsory session for all players this Saturday morning (10th Dec), with all women’s players welcome.

It is a huge year for Premier League in 2023 with a 15-game season and 4 teams being relegated at the end of the season, a huge effort will be required from all players and coaches and we are rapt to have Dan & Steph in charge for the year.
