Sport Lived powerhouse St Kilda Hockey

I spent 6 months living in Melbourne and playing for Powerhouse St Kilda hockey club. it was a great experience as initially the club were very welcoming and had made sure I settled into the club and area and always made transport to training and matches available. it was also very useful to play a different and high intense style of hockey which helped me to improve my game in other areas which I wouldn't have done just from playing hockey in England. There were also plenty of opportunities to help out at the clubbing coaching roles. this then meant I was known at the club for my game and helping out not just being the English guy. My only complaint would be as Powerhouse were premiere league club there was no opportunity to play in the first team as that would mean the club would have to pay for a permit to play but as a result of this it meant I could have a more senior role in the second team.
