Nominations are sought for the Men's and Women's 2026 Masters Indoor Invitational Challenge, to be held at the Illawarra Hockey Centre, from 4 December 2026 to 13 December 2026. The Invitational Challenge is to be split into 2 sub-tournaments (4-8 Dec and 9 - 13 Dec), and will be contested across many men's and Women's age groups.

Available positions are:

• Tournament Director,
• Assistant Tournament Director,
• Umpire Manager,
• Assistant Umpire Manager
• Umpire, and
• Technical Officials 

Exact numbers of umpires and officials will be confirmed once team entry details are known.

As this is an invitational event, an honorarium may be paid to assist with costs associated with attending the event. However, all positions are 'self-funded,' including transport and accommodation.  Hockey Australia / Hockey Australia Masters Committee may be able to assist with the booking of accommodation and ground transport at the event - however, flights and transfers will be the responsibility of the participant.

Arrival and departure times and dates are to be confirmed; however, arrivals are likely to be on 3 December 2026, and departures on 14 December 2025 (there is capacity for officials to officiate at either T1 - 4-8 December, or T2 - 9-13 December).

The level of financial support for Umpires and Officials will be confirmed at a later time.

The submission of a nomination does not constitute a formal offer of appointment to this event nor guarantee an appointment.
