Boy’s Futures
We understand the need to nurture and develop our own home grown players to thrive as a hockey club.
Futures was established to strengthen the link for boys attending Hillhead Juniors to the senior club and provide additional pitch time for our future stars.

Hillhead Futures is led by Alan Meikle and supported by a number of dedicated coaches and current 1st XI players.
Origin
Started in 2018 by club stalwart Alan Meikle, the boy’s Futures sessions have grown from a handful of boys who played for the Men’s Development Squad to three distinct age groups allowing for continual progression and creating a rewarding environment.
Keen to build on the skills that the boys had learned through HIllhead Juniors on a Sunday, we committed to getting our boys more pitch time.
With a key focus on developing a hockey brain through match play and advanced technical skills. The boys were keen to take on Alan’s challenge of establishing Hillhead as a top tier U16 and U18 team once again.
Successes
We are delighted that ten of our Futures boys made the West District squads for the 2023 Inter Districts, 6 participated in the Brave Cup, as well as one of our Futures graduates making the Scotland Emerging Boys squad.
