With Australia’s national hockey program proudly based right here in our state, WA is the heart of hockey, creating more exciting opportunities for our young players than ever before. This includes elite-level sporting experiences like our regional Hockey WA carnivals, proudly sponsored by CSBP and soon to be heading to Narrogin, Northam, Bruce Rock and other regional hubs around the state.

To kick off 2023’s Hockey WA carnivals, 20-year-old Brodee Foster – rising star from Perth Thundersticks and Australia’s under-21s hockey team – joins our host Grey Johnston, CSBP Advice, Insights and Marketing Manager.

Brodee will be part of the touring Hockey WA team at three of this year’s regional carnivals, before heading off to Europe to play for the national under-21s team, and Malaysia for the Sultan of Johor Cup and the Junior World Cup. After that, he’s got his sights set on one day playing for the Kookaburras.

We were thrilled to have him in the studio to share what he loved about last year’s carnivals and what’s got him coming back for more in 2023.

These carnivals give thousands of regional school kids who’ve never played hockey before a great introduction to the sport. They also give those who’ve already picked up a hockey stick a chance to gain some tips from top hockey coaches and elite players, including Brodee Foster and Penny Squibb, and develop their skills in a fun and safe team environment.

As partners of Hockey WA since 2021, CSBP is proud to be supporting the growth of the sport across regional WA and sponsoring the Hockey Carnivals and School Hockey Clinics (part of Hockey WA’s regional schools program) for a third year running.
