Welcome to Royal Holloway Hockey Club!
We are one of the largest sports clubs on campus, with currently over 100 members (both men and women) and we look forward to welcoming even more this year. We have a Team for every ability and experience level.
Events and Activities:
If you join RHUL Hockey, you will have regular training sessions, as well as regular Wednesday BUCS (University League) and weekend fixtures in either a LUSL (Weekend University League) or in the England Southeast Oak league.
We also organise informal hockey events that are inclusive to all members of the club which are used to fundraise for our chosen charities. These will be regular events to bring both the male and female sides of the Club together.
The social side of the Hockey Club is centred around our weekly Wednesday socials. Our traditional events are Come in Your Kit and Dress Your Fresh/Returner. However, we run a variety of amazing, themed events to celebrate the day's matches before heading down to continue celebrations in the SU. We also celebrate at the end of each term with our two formal events of the year: Christmas and End of Season dinner.
Every year over the summer, we host an annual hockey tour. For 2022 we travelled to Lloret de Mar, Spain. But over the years prior the Club has travelled to Malta, Cyprus and Portugal.
Our Training:
We have six teams that tailor for every ability; from those who've never held a hockey stick before to those who have played internationally. All our teams (except the Ladies' 4th XI) play in BUCS on Wednesdays. Our Ladies' 1st XI and Men's 2nd XI play in Southeast Oaks league on Saturday whilst our Men's 1st XI, Ladies' 2nd XI, 3rd XI and 4th XI play in LUSL on Sunday.
