Hi Pauline
Just a small but grateful thank you for the weekend. We have a few tired bodies and brains as I am sure you guys have.
GCW always enjoy the competition and the friendly environment of the HPC Indoor series and I would like to thank everyone from the immediate family and organisers to the umpires.
Our boys and girls friends the tournament an excellent way to develop their Indoor Hockey and the usual question after this is when does indoor start again.
On behalf of us all a hearty thank you.
cheers

Hello,
Just a note to say thank you to you and David for coaching **** earlier this week in Aberdeen.
I wasn’t sure if she was a little too young for it initially, but she had a great time! And is buzzing to attend the Easter camp next year.
So thanks again, much appreciated. And see you soon.
Many thanks,

Dear Pauline, Finally getting round to thanking you and all the coaches at Glenalmond for giving **** a fantastic week at camp. **** was full of praise and enthusiasm for every part of the camp but the highlights were: food; common room; Coaches Emily and Luke ????
The fact I didn’t hear from her much at all was also a sign that she was very happy.
Thanks so much, I am sure she will be back. I hope you’ve found some time to relax this summer too.

Pauline, I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for hosting such a great camp last week at Glenalmond. I didn’t get a chance to thank you as I wasn’t doing the pick up. Anyway *** said she thoroughly enjoyed the week and really felt she benefited and learned a lot. Her school pre season training starts tomorrow and she’s excited to get back to school hockey and hopefully have a crack at district hockey this season.
Anyway I just wanted to say thank you very much!
Best wishes

Testimonial received via email July 2021
I just want to say B had a wonderful week at the camp making many new friends and improving her hockey skills.
Thank you for all the words of encouragement during your one to one with her, she feels inspired and more determined to keep going to improve her goalkeeping skills and continue trying to get into district/Scotland squads.

I picked up a very happy, tired child on Friday and wanted to say a big thank you to yourself and all the coaches. A absolutely loved the week , she has learnt new skills and has a bunch of new friends.
A fantastic week!
Just wanted to say thank you for the hockey camp. The girls seemed to thoroughly enjoy it all and the only complaint was not enough hockey due to weather.
They are keen to attend one in summer.
I just wanted to thank you and all the coaches for the camp this week. Despite the conditions **** had a brilliant time at her first camp and is already gutted that we are on holiday during your next camp in July.
I will keep a look out for any other camps during the summer holidays and hopefully she can make it to another one of yours in the future.
Dear Pauline,
Thank you for the camp, sounds like the girls had a great time.
Regards
Thanks for a super 3 day camp Pauline, Anna really enjoyed and she has dozed and slept pretty much since she got home!
Always a good sign of a great time – exhausted !!
Just wanted to feedback that **** really enjoyed the camp and felt she had learned a lot. The standard of coaching and skill levels sought were higher than she has experienced at other camps and really inspired her to improve.
She had a great time off the hockey pitches too and was recounting the water polo games and gym sessions with aching limbs and a smile.

If you have attended an HPC Hockey or Rugby Camp please do send us a testimonial and any feedback you wish to share.
