Pathway questions

Frequently asked questions.

What is the Pathway programme?

Pathway is a connected block of high-repetition technical sessions. Each block has a clear skill focus and is built to complement, rather than replace, team training.

Who can join Pathway?

Pathway is open from intermediate-school age through to senior elite players. You do not need representative selection, but you do need to be ready to train with purpose and intensity.

Which Pathway level should I choose?

If you are new to Pathway, please choose the "unsure" option and talk to us at your first session. We can then ensure you are placed in the best group to develop and grow your game.

When and where is the next Pathway block?

Block 4 runs on Mondays 2, 9, 16, 23 and 30 November 2026, from 6–7:30 pm at Hastings Sports Park.

What are the payment options?

The full five-week block costs NZ$50 incl GST per player. Pay securely during registration. For a player under 18, a parent or guardian registers through a Family account. Players aged 18 or over use their own Senior Player account. If you need to arrange payment by bank transfer, email us and we can help.

What is the cancellation policy?

We understand that plans change. If you can no longer attend part or all of a block, contact us as soon as possible so we can confirm the options available for your booking.
