Hockey Tasmania

What Hockey Tasmania does

Hockey Tasmania (legal entity: Hockey Tasmania Inc.) is the incorporated state sporting association governing field hockey in Tasmania, Australia, affiliated with Hockey Australia. Founded in 1999 and headquartered at 19 Bell Street, New Town, the organisation operates two owned venues — the Aurora Energy Tasmanian Hockey Centre in Hobart and the Northern Hockey Centre in Launceston — providing competition, training, and hospitality infrastructure across both major population centres.

The organisation's product portfolio covers the full participation funnel: introductory programs (Hookin2Hockey for ages 5-12, Come And Try Days), age-grade competitions (juniors, indoor hockey), adult competitive leagues (Premier League, Greater Northern League), representative pathways (Tassie Tigers state teams, Tigers Academy co-developed with the Tasmanian Institute of Sport), and inclusive formats (Masters over 30s, Walking Hockey). A Schools Program partnership with the Tasmanian Department of Education extends delivery into the state primary-school curriculum. Underlying technology is the third-party Revolutionise Sport platform, which handles online registration, competition management, and ScoreLive real-time scoring.

Hockey Tasmania operates on a nonprofit membership model funded through annual player registrations, venue hire and bar/kiosk hospitality at both centres, and a diversified sponsorship portfolio led by Aurora Energy (flagship naming sponsor), the Tasmanian Government, TIS, and both Hobart and Launceston City Councils, alongside a long tail of commercial sponsors. With 11-50 employees and no disclosed revenue, the association functions as a community-led, event-driven governing body rather than a commercial enterprise.
