As this years mental health awareness week draws to a close, we thought we’d share @mentalhealthfoundations top tips for getting out and interacting with nature. As hockey players we exercise outdoors constantly which has great benefits for our physical and mental health. Additionally, we have the opportunity to chat to one another, check in and socialize, which after a year of lockdown may seem both daunting and exciting. Take advantage, head down to training this week to get out in nature and catch up with teammates! 🌿

Last weekend a few of our lovely ladies took part

Last weekend a few of our lovely ladies took part in our annual “LUUWHC Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge” to raise money for @sudepaction! Of course with things being a little different this year (do I need to explain?🦠) we decided to walk a marathon instead! We walked a combined distance of 570km and raised over £500 so far! The link to donate is in the bio so keep giving-remember, we love charity! Well done girls, hope you enjoyed your ice creams 🍦💚🍦

This is not a super late April fools, the rumours are true and we’re back on the pitch TODAY! In keeping with government guidelines training resumes this week so keep an eye on your teams pages to book in a training slot! As always, stay safe, have fun💚🏑💚

***Lead LUU Endorsement***

If you've not already seen, one of our own @rollwnicole4luu is running to hopefully be next year's International Officer and Postgraduate!

Nicole will be our official endorsement for the club this year. It'd be amazing if you could all back her when voting opens next Monday, here's a little message from Nicole herself:

Hi Gewls! It’s Nicole. Some of you may remember me as Sit Down Nicole, others (only Chloe Hagan) as Pat, and some of you may be reading this like who even IS she. Well, I am the little Ecuadorean fresher who now, a grown up 3rd year, is trying to become the next International Officer & Postgraduate for @LeedsUniUnion. LUUWHC over the past three years has become more then just my hockey club but also my family, I say this with all the love in my heart, I would not have made it through uni without them. If any fresher is reading this even if this year has been a bit wobbly stick with it, because these girls are gonna become your best friends 4LYFE. Anyways, I am asking for ALL your support during these elections! (pls) so I can achieve some real change within the uni next year! Pls follow my campaign insta @rollwnicole4luu ( https://www.instagram.com/rollwnicole4luu/ ), and VOTE VOTE VOTE!!
Peace and pout, Nicole out x

Votings open..what are you waiting for?!💚💚💚💜💜💜

Please donate whatever you can towards @SudepAction , a charity extremely close to the clubs heart, having lost one of our own members, Emily Sumaria, in 2012 to epilepsy.
