wcriptide.com/freesessionAbout CA Riptide
CA Riptide (West Coast Riptide) is a youth field hockey club in Los Angeles. Our programs are open to all genders and welcome every skill level, from kids who have never held a stick to experienced players. Our coaches specialize in teaching beginners and building confidence in a fun, supportive environment.
We believe field hockey can shape strong, brave, positive and confident players. We teach courage, persistence, generosity, accountability and sportsmanship just as intentionally as we teach dribbling and shooting.
Age Groups
Players ages 6 and up are grouped by age and skill so everyone trains with players at their level.

The Winter Season
Individual sessions 11 AM–12 PM
Every session has a purpose. Early sessions focus on ball control, confidence and core technique; mid-season brings in combination play and small-group games; late season brings it all together in full team formats with round robins and real game time. Join at any point in the season.
