The AHL is the premier hockey competition in Australia, being a national championships contested by teams representing each of the country’s eight states and territories. Each state team contains the finest players in the region, many of which are established members of Australia’s sensational Kookaburras team. It is widely regarded as one of the strongest and most competitive field hockey leagues in the world.
Last year’s competition winners were the OAMPS Queensland Blades, a team that was certainly not short of international quality. Mark Knowles, Rob Hammond, Matty Swann and five times FIH Player of the Year Jamie Dwyer (pictured) all played a part in the Queensland victory.
