Why Great Lakes Regional Field Hockey

We strive to make the sport of field hockey as strong as it can be.  Whether acting as a conduit for information to key stakeholders, an advocate for programs, or contributing financial support for visionary change and growth,
we are here to provide infrastructure and guidance

Great Lakes Regional Field Hockey (GLRFH) is a non-profit organization, established in 2019 to serve and support the growth of field hockey at the local level. We believe in the long-lasting health benefits of sport for participants of all ages, especially young children. We believe that field hockey is a sport for everybody and strive to reach underserved communities and underrepresented populations.

Join us as we work to broaden the playing field through our grass roots growth model. 

By providing a network for thriving field hockey communities, GLRFH will serve as a springboard for all participants to enjoy good physical and emotional health, and benefit from the character-building attributes that are inherent in sports. At a local level, participants will experience a united sense of belonging to last a lifetime. Our growth model targets inequities as we work in communities to remove barriers and provide more access and opportunity for all who want to play.

Join GLRFH.

Access Matters.


GLRFH is guided by the principles of growth, fun, trust, grit and respect. We look to develop field hockey communities in the Midwest, that foster these values.

We serve and support field hockey in the Great Lakes Region by providing a foundation for a network of thriving communities.

Your support and enthusiasm for field hockey has helped bolster our vision and motivate our team towards achieving 2023's goals with mission in mind. To us, it’s more than just a sport; it’s our passion. Our donor community is at the heart of the work we are doing.

This year, thanks to you, we’ve made significant strides. We’ve expanded our reach and strengthened the bonds within our growing community, bringing us one step closer to a thriving regional field hockey network.

Together, we are building a legacy for field hockey, fostering a love for the game, and inspiring future generations. As we look to the future, let’s continue to grow, connect, and share our love for field hockey.
