As we look forward to the forthcoming season, this is a very exiting time for
'The Club' as we buck the trend in Kent and SouthEast London as the only hockey
club to increase in size (from six sides to seven sides) last season. We hope
to continue to the trend by running an eighth side this forthcoming season -
making us one of the largest clubs in the area.
With our 1st XI narrowly missing out on promotion last season, and many of our
under-19 year old players representing Lewisham, winning the prestigious London
Youth Games - the future is very rosy at the world's oldest hockey club.
Everything is geared towards a championship winning season, based solidly on
the phenomenal comradeship that exists at every level in the club, the hard
pre-season fitness sessions, and the large amounts of beers that are consumed
in the Brian Brown Bar!
The club has a very active summer hockey Schedule during the summer - run by Conrad De'Suza. Games take place on mostly Tuesday evenings at the clubhouse at Rubens Street, and anyone interested in a match should contact Conrad on 0181 699 2423.
Re-season fitness training takes place from Thursday 24th July at the club,
Rubens Street, Catford. This session therein takes place every Thursday evening
at 7.30pm throughout August. Everyone is welcome.
Skills training takes place at Lloyds Bank Astroturf, Copers Cope Road,
Beckenham. This starts on Tuesday 2nd September, and every Tuesday throughout
the season. Again, everyone is welcome to participate.
Trials take place at 20th September at Lloyds Bank Astroturf, Copers Cope Road,
Beckenham. Please come along armed with a red, and a white shirt. Everyone is
invited to participate, and with a wide spectrum of teams playing at the club,
there is room for everyone to take part at all levels.
Any enquiries about teams, selection, and other pre-season activity should be
