VOODOO Voyage: 007: Dylan Brick

We ran him through a rapid-fire Q&A to get a glimpse of the person behind the player kicking things off, of course, with the essentials: coffee. Safe to say, caffeine is doing plenty of heavy lifting around VOODOO HQ ☕️

Let’s start with the essentials, what's your Coffee order?
Skinny Cappuccino

What position on the pitch do you play?
Fullback and halfback

Which VOODOO shape do you use?
VXL

Would you rather play without a mouthguard or without shin guards?
Without a Mouthguard


Why do you use VOODOO?
I have always loved the feel of the gear as well as the cool and modern designs. The Voodoo crew has also always looked after me and I can’t thank them enough. 

What about the game of hockey do you love?  This can be on field or off field.
The competitive and technical nature of the sport as well as the friendships and mates you make on and off the field.

Looking back, what’s the single piece of advice you’d give your younger self when you first started playing?
Be patient, everyone’s journey is different and comparison is a thief of joy.

What has been your biggest challenge you have overcome?
A couple of injuries as well as missing out on selections.

What is your favourite memory on the pitch to date?
Winning the Sultan of Johor cup with the Burras or making it to the hockey one grand final with the Chill.

Outside of hockey what do you enjoy spending your time doing?
Spending time with family and friends and finding the best coffee shop or making coffee.

What do you wish to see for Australian hockey domestically and internationally and what is required to get there?
For the hockey one league to continue to grow to become one of the best in the world. I also hope the Kookaburras and Hockeyroos continue to play their own way which is fast and exiting to play and watch and for Hockey Australia to continue to build the pathway for juniors to make it to the top.

Who got you into hockey and at what age?
My family and at 4 years old. Central Hockey Club.

What club did you first start playing for?
Central Hockey Club.

Describe your playing style in three words
Aggressive, passionate, tactical

Always had to wear the same pair of budgies on match day.

100 duck sized horses
