Stick Together
Stick Together is Hockey New Zealand’s new initiative rallying support for the next generation of Black Sticks. Through this new funding model, contributors will be directly supporting the entire Under 21 teams heading to the World Cup this December. This model will pilot an ongoing programme to help national pathway teams thrive on the world Stage.
Why does it matter & who can join?
Performance team sports demand investment for travel, coaching and development. Stick Together aims to unite our community to break down financial barriers and support New Zealand’s future hockey stars.
Any business, organisation, or individual who wants to make a real difference in our high-performance system. Whether you’re a long-time supporter or new to the game, Stick Together gives you a clear and meaningful way to contribute.
