Basingstoke Hockey Club Description
The Club was first established in the early 1950’s when it shared a small pavilion at Odiham’s cricket ground, fielded only two teams and had no more than thirty members.
We now have a playing membership in the region of 180 + members enabling us to field 6 Men’s teams, 6 Ladies teams, 5 youth teams and a mixed team on a regular basis.
We as a club believe continue to and believe this has been a direct result of having a firm structure and taking hockey development seriously. Both males and females as young as six to sixty currently play hockey at the club. Saturday morning training sees some 50 + 6-10 year olds getting to grips with the basics whilst Sunday morning sees 40 + 11-14 year olds train.
We have good links with many of the schools in the borough which is the main medium by which we obtain new youngsters wishing to play hockey outside of school.
In addition to the playing side of the club we have a very active social scene which sees many social events organised each year from skittles evenings, quiz nights, Christmas Dinner, Presidents Day and the Annual Club dinner.
Basingstoke Hockey Club is always on the look out for new players of all ages and abilities. Interested players should contact us today!
