Whitehall High School’s field hockey program is looking for additional dedicated and excited female student athletes to join its team.
Field hockey is a fun and competitive sport. If you have never played field hockey before, no worries. You’ll be taught the fundamental skills during the offseason. Students can train, practice and lift to get ready for the fall playing season, and it is a great way to stay in shape for a winter or spring sport.
Interested girls can text @22whsfh to the number 81010.
