Sunshine Coast Hockey Association, Buderim Rebels

Hockey is more than a sport. It's a way of life. At Rebels, we are committed to developing our club and our members by providing the best possible environments for connection, community, collaboration and competition. We want our club to provide a place where our junior members can develop sporting skills, make friends, have fun and learn healthy social lessons about competition, collaboration and even how to deal with loss. We provide some of the best coaches in the region - people not just with qualifications, but experience as top-level players. We have a strong commitment to our club's Code of Conduct that ensures everyone embraces the values and behaviours that we believe deliver the best results for all our members, supporters and partners. Make no mistake, we are competitive (you can't get all 13 teams in your club into the finals and become 2013 Club of the Year if you aren't) but we are not driven by competition at any cost. We are driven by performance, results, accountability, reputation, social development, friendships and fun. Ask anyone at our club - from kids and parents to players and supporters - and they will tell you that they have made lifelong friendships here.

As a club, we are only as good as our members. If everything described here sounds like a good fit for you (or your kids), then we would love to have you join our family. It's about more than hockey.
