While plenty could change, Hockey Albury-Wodonga aims to resume in just over a month and play through until the end of October, with a finals format yet to be determined.

However, the association's sports operations manager Cayte Campbell has plenty of unanswered questions.

"It's still going to be a challenge for us to deliver a hockey experience, particularly when we don't know when we'll definitely be playing," Campbell said.

"What if we're allowed to play junior sport in NSW and we're not allowed to in Victoria? Are people from Victoria allowed to come to NSW? What if we run the whole competition out of Albury?

"We don't want to be doing the wrong thing either, so we've got to make sure we're on the correct side of the law.

"We've got permission from Albury and Wodonga councils to train, but we're still waiting on written permission from Wangaratta and Federation."

The association's representative team, the Albury-Wodonga Spitfires, are currently the only group training at Albury Hockey Centre, with Hockey ACT aiming to start the Capital League season on July 10.

"I think there's one or two (Hockey Albury-Wodonga clubs) looking at starting next week. The rest have indicated they don't want to start training until they have a start date, again because of the financial implications," Campbell said.

"If we don't have a season or members aren't prepared to pay for a season, they've got no money coming in. To have money going out for training is not feasible for some of them."

A return to play for the Spitfires won't be as straightforward as it looks.

Hockey ACT plans to run the season until the end of October, with finals to follow, which could test the depth of the squad.

The travel to Canberra also appears to be providing some headaches.

"Whether we can participate in that depends on a number of things, the biggest being if we have to social distance when we travel," Campbell said.

"To do that we either have to get two small buses or one large bus and we can't afford it, unless the boys can come up with a free bus from somebody.

"The other thing that will preclude us will be if they can go for that long because that commitment is above and beyond the hockey season.

"We've got to make sure we've got numbers to be able to continue for a season for that length of time.

"There's guys that play other sports, there's work commitments and they could have other things booked."

Campbell said not fielding a women's team makes no difference to Hockey Albury-Wodonga's ability to financially support the Spitfire men.

Hume Football League has abandoned its senior competition in 2020 but would like to ensure its juniors get a chance to play in some capacity, but for Hockey Albury-Wodonga, catering for a full complement of age groups is paramount.
