Mission & Vision
Lasting Legacy Field Hockey Club’s mission is to provide members the opportunity to improve their field hockey skills through individual and team instruction. Our “love of the game” inspires each of our programs and recognizes that each athlete progresses along her own developmental curve.
Our members are challenged to develop their skills and abilities through competition in a fun and positive way. Sportsmanship, respect for the rules of the game, respect for teammates and opponents, self-discipline, team loyalty, intensity of effort, and competitive spirit are the foundation of the Lasting Legacy Field Hockey Club.
