Surrey Hockey Association
Goalkeeper programme
Mercian MD Simon Mason uses his national and international (3 Olympic Games and @ 200 international caps) to design and deliver the Surrey Hockey Association GK coaching programme. With Surrey HA running a junior development programme covering approximately 1500 junior athletes every year, the goalkeeping element is of huge importance. Simon designs the technical training programme and delivers it in conjunction with the Team Mercian goalkeeping group, including special guest appearances from current international keepers, to develop the skills and knowledge of every keeper within the programme.

Spekboom Project
Mercian is aware of the environmental effects of composite stick production, transportation and disposal. Changes have been made in the processes to recognise and reduce this impact. But, some processes, such as recycling of end of life sticks doesn’t technically exist at this point. Mercian has partnered with Windhoek Gymnasium School to create a Spekboom plantation on the school property. The Spekboom shrub is incredibly good at absorbing carbon and has been compared to the Amazon rainforest in that regard.
