Expanding our regular club programme of training and matches for both juniors and adults, we’re delighted to have introduced two new initiatives this month: Back to Hockey and Walking Hockey (a first for Surrey!).
Back to Hockey
‘Back to Hockey’ has inspired thousands of people to pick up their sticks for the first time in years and others for the very first time. It’s a chance to meet like-minded people of all ages, get fitter and enjoy the social element of the game.
We’ve had a great response with 12 people signing up so far and, two sessions in, interest growing all the time. Sessions have been informal and fun and everyone who has come along has said they’ve loved it!
There’s still time to give it a go before Christmas. Come and join us at Old Schools Lane in Ewell on Thursday 13 December from 7.00–8.00pm.
First session free (future sessions £3). All equipment provided.

Walking Hockey
Walking hockey is growing in popularity as a sport for those who are looking to keep active but had to call it a day due to injury or other reasons. It’s also perfect for anyone looking for a social and less physically demanding way to get active, no matter your age or skill level! As well as the health benefits, it’s a great way to meet new people, socialise, build confidence and take part in a team sport.
Our inaugural Walking Hockey session on 6 December was a huge success. 16 pioneers attended the hour long session where both past members and new faces alike enjoyed being put through their ‘paces’. And, what better way to finish than with a hot drink and festive mince pie!
Again, there’s still time to try Walking Hockey before Christmas. Come and join us at Old Schools Lane in Ewell on Thursday 13 December from 10.00-11.00am.
First session free (future sessions £3). All equipment provided.

More to come in 2019
It’s been a great start for both groups and we’re looking to run regular Back to Hockey and Walking Hockey sessions in 2019, starting weekly from mid-January.
Help us spread the word and we’d love to see you in the new year.
