We also enter teams of various ages into tournaments and leagues throughout the season.  In the last year we played several strongly contested matches against our friends at FREFlyers and played an U16 game against Ross on Wye with Waltham Forest HC.  Many of our young people have played in the U14 Mercian leagues.

Why?

We think it's vital that children and young people get involved in an Olympic Sport that was hotly contested right here in London 2012. Hockey is a great game, and if you've never played it, you should certainly give it a shot. Youth training is available for both girls and boys up to the age of 18, with our youngest player being 5 years old and enjoying it immensely. It's a great way to have fun, get fit, make friends, and learn to work as a team.

For those old and mature enough, you might even be able to turn out for one of our adult sides on Saturdays.

We are very keen to hear of any interest from any young players, even if you've never picked up a stick before! If you fancy giving hockey a shot, get in touch with our Youth Development Officer at elhcyouth@gmail.com and we'll let you know any details.

We are also keen to hear any ideas/suggestions/views from those in and around Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Newham - please do get in touch!

Concerns

Children and young people have the right to play hockey in a safe environment and to be treated properly.

If you, your child or anyone else's child has been the victim of bullying, humiliation or any other abuse, please report it to the Club's Welfare Officer, by email elhcwelfareofficer@gmail.com or by going to our Contact Us page.
