New for 2023-24 – Following the formal adoption of new Society Bylaws (that come into effect September 1, 2023), Society ‘Members’ are now BC accredited community clubs and individual participants (previously referred to as members) are now referred to as ‘Registered Participants’. More information about these changes is available at the Special AGM section here.
Registrations are now open and can be accessed through here. There is also a step-by-step guide for the registration process available here.

As a reminder:
- Every field hockey player, coach, official, volunteer, and administrator is required to register ahead of participation and is classified under the title ‘Registered Participant’. Each Registered Participant is required to pay registered participant fees to BOTH Field Hockey BC (FHBC) and Field Hockey Canada (FHC) unless otherwise stated.
- All Registered Participant registrations will involve an online registration process via the FHBC website. This will take care of both FHBC and FHC fees and these fees will not need to be considered as part of your annual club fee structure.
- Registered Participants only need register in ONE category.
- Some Registered Participants may be players, coaches, officials, volunteers and/or administrators and under these circumstances, Registered Participants are required to register in their HIGHEST category.
- The option to register will be open throughout the year with the seasonal year running September 1 – August 31.
Refunds: Once a Field Hockey BC Registered Participant has actively participated in the current membership year, regardless of the extent of such participation, registered participant fees are regrettably not eligible for reimbursement nor eligible for proration. This applies to both Field Hockey BC and Field Hockey Canada fees that form the full field hockey registered registration fee. Such a policy has recently been reviewed by the FHBC Board of Directors with the decision that registered participant fees will only be reimbursed to those members who have not actively participated.
