The aim of the Hockey Queensland Year Book is to hold all Annual Records and Results for the year, and celebrate the achievements of Queenslanders in all aspects of the game.
Each year the Book will be improved and contain as much information as possible where it is prudent to do so.
Continuing records are maintained in the History section and can be downloaded from the Hockey Queensland website, however the Year Book contains annual records not necessarily kept in perpetuity at this time.
Policies
Sport is an Australian way of life. It brings people together, regardless of any differences in language, ability, culture and beliefs, and provides physical, social and economic benefits.
For those reasons, it’s critical that we keep hockey safe and fair, for everyone who participates.
Threats to sports integrity include things like behaviours that impact people’s positive experience of sport, such as discrimination or abuse, illicit drug use, doping and competition manipulation.
Integrity in sports means that athletes, volunteers, supporters and fans can participate in and celebrate sports, confident in the knowledge that they are part of a safe, fair and inclusive environment.
Hockey Queensland takes integrity seriously and is committed to safeguarding hockey.
All members and participants have an obligation to protect and maintain the integrity of hockey, as well as the health and well-being of others who participate.

Anti-Doping
Anti-doping rules apply to all participants of our sport, from high performance down to grassroots. All members must be aware of and have a basic understanding of their obligations in regard to anti-doping.
The Sport Integrity Australia website has a range of information and resources to assist, including:
- information about supplements
- applying for a Therapeutic Use Exemption
- submitting Whereabouts information
- information about Athlete testing
The Hockey Queensland and Hockey Australia Anti-doping Policy is the Australian National Anti-Doping Policy, effective 1 January 2021, and can be found on the Sport Integrity Australia website. All members, participants and non-participants in the sport of hockey are bound by these rules.
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) updates and publishes the Prohibited List each year. The Prohibited List outlines what substances and methods are prohibited in sport and when. The 2024 Prohibited List came into force on 1 January 2024 and can be found here.
