Below please find an important update and revision of the registration date for the Cape Town 2024 Masters Hockey World Cup.

It is essential that all Provincial players, some of whom may not have, as yet, registered for the 2024 WC.

Those who have not registered have two months to do so.

To those who have registered I have confirmed by email their registration.

Another email will be sent towards the end of October confirming those who register during October.

Revision of Players Registration date

This is an update on an important date regarding the 2024 Cape Town World Cup.

You may recall that in Newsletter 3 it was pointed out that those players who were interested in participating in Cape Town Masters World Cup 2024, in age groups 65 to 80, are required to access and complete the APPLICATION LINK B in that newsletter.

The original player registration deadline was 31 January 2024 and the commitment fee of R500.00 was to be paid to SAGMH bank account no later than 31 January 2024.

It is important to note that we are required to register our RSA teams for the Cape Town World Cup with World Masters Hockey by the 29th February 2024.

A payment amount of R19,200.00 per team, must accompany this registration.

Knowing this requires us to firm up the number of teams we are going to register for the World Cup 2024; information which is derived from player registration on the registration links explained and provided in the Newsletter Number 3, link copied below for convenience.

APPLICATION LINK B TO REGISTER FOR Cape Town World Cup 2024 https://forms.gle/a6Pb3Rbi8EEBrygx5

To date the players who have registered for the Cape Town World Cup, per team number:

• +65: 32 players
• +70: 21 players
• +75: 15 players
• Total : 68 players

If these numbers increase we may be able to field two +65 teams.

For this reason and to meet the requirement to register our teams with World Masters  our player registration closing date is being  brought forward to 30th November 2023.

Those players who have not registered thus far therefore have October and November to decide if they wish to be considered for selection.

To this end I am also attaching the 3rd Newsletter which has the player registration link and other information you may find useful circulating.

A 4th Newsletter will be published in October 2023.

Please communicate this revised date to all your players thereby giving them a reminder and a “heads up” on the earlier FINAL registration date: 30th November 2023

The commitment fee of R500.00 remains to be affected and reflected in the SAGMHA bank account no later than 31 January 2024.
