We are in need of parental support (coaches, organizers, safety, communications, party planning, etc).  When you register, consider checking the volunteer box!  Without additional help -- we may only be able to field one 5/6 team this year.  Volunteering really is a great way to get involved and support your athletes, field hockey experience not required. 

We are a 100% volunteer organization run in conjunction with the Montclair Recreation Department.  Please email me if you can help out! 

We also look forward to working closely with the Montclair High School Field Hockey players and will be using a large portion of the fee revenue collected to offer scholarship/stipends to interested MHS athletes (varsity, JV, freshmen) who will work closely with our coaches and young field hockey players over the fall season. All MYFH alumni are encouraged to apply!
