You may have never played hockey before but as the sport’s exposure in the media increases you may have thought it looks like a fun competitive sport to try. You may have tried hockey at school but not pursued playing in a club before. Or you may have terrible memories of hockey from school on a cold muddy pitch that bear little resemblence to the fun fast sport hockey is today.

We think hockey is great because:

• It is a fast technical game. You can learn the basics quickly, but still be mastering your skills after decades of playing
• It is fun and sociable team sport
• Rolling substitutions help make it a tactical game and one where you can rest during the game, and re-enter the fray revived
• It is played at all ages. You can start at 6 and still be playing, even at international level at 60
• It is played equally by men and women. In addition to mens and ladies sides there are many social and competitive mixed sides. Hockey is a sport that has a mixed international team
• It can be played outdoors or indoors
